3rd National Bank
415 Olive Street at Broadway
Built: 1907
Architect: Eames & Young
Status: demolished 1980; now the site of Metropolitan Square.

The building as constructed differs considerably in appearance between this image (a rendering from 1909) and this differing postcard view. The building is also visible at left in this postcard image of the Veterans Administration Building. Sources variously identify it as the Liberty Central Trust Company of St. Louis (a name it bears in a 1940s-era photograph), and alternately the Mississippi Valley Building.

It remains the tallest building in St. Louis to have been demolished.
