Cochran Gardens takes shape. 🏗️
This week’s Throwback Thursday takes us to 1952, with an aerial view of Cochran Gardens during construction. The photograph captures a moment when new homes and a new chapter of public housing were taking shape in St. Louis.
Looking back at these images helps us trace the history of housing in our city and the communities that became part of its story.
