The city’s most happening Halloween Celebration is set for October 26. Maryland Ave. will shut down and bring out the best of St. Louis costumes.
FALL PRODUCE! Just because the leaves are changing, doesn’t mean you can’t still enjoy the farm fresh goodies! Delicious squash, eggs and meat are still available.

Trova Sculpture at the York House
Thanks to our friends at Laumeier Sculpture Park, the front lawn of the York House has a new presence — the installation today of the Ernest Trova sculpture, Gox No. 9 1975. The York House is committed to enhancing urban living, and we feel this sculpture from one of our own local artists is a great addition.
In the late 1960s and early 1970s, Trova was among the most widely acknowledged sculptors working in the United States, resulting in invitations to exhibit in three Whitney Annuals, three Venice Biennales and Documenta 4 (1968) in Kassel, Germany. His works has been exhibited in dozens of major museums including the Museum of Modern Art, New York; and the Walker Art Center, Minneapolis.
Gox No. 9 was a gift from the artist to Laumeier Sculpture Park, whose mission is to expand the context of contemporary sculpture beyond the traditional confines of a museum, initiate a lifelong process of cultural awareness, enrich lives, and inspire creative thinking by engaging people in experiences of sculpture and nature simultaneously. We are proud to house this sculpture, and become an extension of the Laumeier Sculpture Park mission.

Library Bar at the York House
Remember the days before e-mail and texting when neighbors used to spend time talking with each other? Well, we at the York House do, and that concept is one of the origins behind the Library Bar on the ground floor. In addition to enjoying a comfortable, well decorated space to enjoy a cocktail at the end of the day, you can also converse with your neighbors and friends. In a space that evokes the character of the building’s origin in the 1920’s, you may ask yourself, “who else enjoyed a nice conversation over a drink here?” The bar features custom cherry wood cabinets, leather chairs, a refurbished oak bar, and private wood cubbies to keep your own private stash secure and handy. The bar is not open to the public; just residents and their invited guests. The library bar is another way we hope to enhance urban living for our residents.
