Melaney Walz is a 21-year old mother who has lived in Covenant House in Philadelphia, Pa, Atlantic City, NJ and St. Louis, Mo. She has an 11-month-old son, Marshawn and is five months pregnant with a daughter.
It is the goal of Do1Thing to empower homeless youth to move themselves from homelessness to a permanent housing. Empowerment comes by outfitting the teens with training, items and supplies needed to overcome their current situations move forward.
We partner with Covenant House International, the largest privately-funded agency in the Americas providing shelter and other services to homeless, runaway and throwaway youth. Our second partner is StandUp for Kids. The mission of StandUp for Kids is to help homeless and street kids.
They do this, every day, in cities across America, carrying out their mission through volunteers who go to the streets in order to find, stabilize and otherwise help homeless and street kids improve their lives.

Opened in 1997, the City Museum was founded by artist Bob Cassilly, and his wife, Gail Cassilly, to serve as an art and architectural museum with a very whimsical theme, featuring multiple tunnels, decorative architectural ornament relics, art installations, slides, staircases, and various other exhibits, attractions, and installations. The museum is housed in the former International Shoe Company Annex, built in 1931, which is a contributing structure in the Washington Avenue Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.

Built in 1929, this Renaissance Revival-style building was designed by Preston J. Bradshaw to serve as the Lennox Hotel, and was the tallest hotel in the city of St. Louis at the time of its completion. The hotel remained open until the 1970s, when the aging facilities and competition from newer hotels put the Lennox out of business. In 2002, the hotel was renovated and reopened as the Renaissance St. Louis Suites Hotel, which remained open until financial problems brought on by the Great Recession forced its closure in 2011. The hotel was subsequently sold, and was renovated between 2013 and 2015, reopening as the Courtyard St. Louis Downtown-Convention Center. The building is clad in buff brick with terra cotta trim, terra cotta cladding at the facade of the first three floors, two-over-two windows, a decorative metal canopy at the corner entrance to the building, a stucco-clad penthouse, cornice with dentils and brackets at the top of the building, decorative sculptural reliefs and pediments, and festoons at the top of the base of the building. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984, and remains in operation as the Courtyard St. Louis Downtown-Convention Center.
Built in 1898, this Romanesque Revival-style structure was designed by Harvey Ellis to serve as a water tower for the St. Louis Water System. The 179 foot (55 meter) tall tower is clad in buff brick with a rusticated limestone base, a cylindrical stair tower with a conical roof on the northwest corner, lower towers on the other corners at the base of the structure, a tall domed roof, roman arched and rectilinear bays with stone headers, a large staircase leading up to the recessed entrance portal, and a now-closed observation deck below the dome. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1972. The tower fell into disuse in 1929, when advancements in the systems of the St. Louis Waterworks no longer required the use of standpipes, but remains standing as a decorative monument in Compton Hill Reservoir Park.
Built in 1908-1911, this Beaux Arts-style building was designed by Issac S. Taylor to house the Municipal Courts of the City of St. Louis. The building features a limestone-clad exterior with a rusticated gray granite base, engaged fluted doric columns, doric pilasters, one-over-one double-hung windows, decorative carved reliefs, a cornice with modillions, a parapet with a balustrade, decorative stone sculptures, arched transoms above the main entrance doors, a large set of stone steps up to the main entrance from Market Street, and six light wells inside the building, providing light and air to most interior spaces. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2012, and is presently vacant.
Former Lemp Brewery, Cherokee Street, St Loius. Once the biggest brewery in St Louis it is built upon a complex of natural caves which were once used for the lagering of beer. William J. Lemp took over the business and purchased the property that would become the Lemp Brewery industrial complex in 1864. The Brewery consists of 27 buildings. The Brewery closed with Prohibition in 1919 and the complex was purchased by the International Shoe Company in 1922 who occupied it until approximately 1980. Since then it has been semi-occupied by various tenants for light industrial, commercial, and warehousing uses, office space, and artist studios.
