Powell Hall, formerly known as the St. Louis Theater, and Powell Symphony Hall, is the home of the St. Louis Symphony. It was named after Walter S. Powell, a local St. Louis businessman, whose widow donated $1 million towards the purchase and use of this hall by the symphony. The hall seats 2,683.The building is a contributing property of the Midtown Historic District on the National Register of Historic Places.HistoryThe building was originally called The St. Louis Theater. It was built in 1925 with 4,100 seats, designed by the Chicago architectural firm of Rapp & Rapp. The theater spent the first 40 years of its existence as a stage for live vaudeville performances as well as motion pictures. The last movie shown in the old theater was The Sound of Music in 1966. At that time, the building was acquired by the Symphony Society for $500,000, through a gift from Oscar Johnson, Jr.. After spending an additional $2 million to update and renovate the theater, the hall re-opened in January 1968 as the new home of the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra.The building is said to be haunted by the ghost of a man named George. He is supposedly seen in a white suit and white hat and is thought to be that of a former vaudevillian. He is said to play with the lights and the elevators.

Saunders, Thom Dancy, Brian Enos, and Brandon DiCriscio (former dancer with River North Dance Company) have all contributed work to the troupe's growing list of repertoire.

The history of Union labor in St. Louis is storied and can be displayed in the many structures dotting the banks of the mighty Mississippi. From the Gateway Arch to Union Station, organized labor has contributed to the development and bravado of our community for a majority of the 20th century. As the 21st century dawns, the next generations of these laborers continue to develop downtown and midtown with the goal of further extending the appeal and beauty of St. Louis to residents and visitors alike. America’s Tavern at the Union House honors this commitment to excellence and prides itself on serving the Union and construction workers of this city. As the city grows in the future, we will support and serve those who make this growth possible.

De Gustibus Non Disputandum Est makes for a good credo. It invites everyone to the table; snobs, slobs, sloven and sophisticate. There is a lot to discover about the world of wine and each other. Expanding our knowledge of wine offers a common interest, and a lubricant to exercise conversation.
