Description
The arched doorway into the ruins of a Change House in Fort Belle Fontaine Park in Missouri built during the Work Progress Administration (WPA), a program started by President Franklin D Roosevelt to create jobs during the Great Depression. These improvements were meant to attract St. Louis residents to the Boys Home nearby. The home was opened in 1915 and was commonly known as Belle Fontaine Farms. The park is located along the Missouri River in a suburb of St. Louis.
