| Description | In 1903, Edward Gardner Lewis broke ground for the new headquarters and printing plant for the Lewis Publishing Company on Delmar Boulevard in St. Louis County. In this photograph workers are laying the foundation walls for the printing plant. Workers with a mule team are digging a trench down the middle of the site, probably for utilities. When completed, the building was 100 feet wide by 275 feet long. |
