Barnum's St. Louis Hotel was a historic 6-floor hotel built in 1854.[1] The Barnums were a family of hotel keepers who has run the famous Barnum's Hotel in Baltimore.[2] This building was located at the 2nd and Walnut Streets in St. Louis, Missouri, and has been considered to be St. Louis' first high-rise building. The hotel was designed by architect George I. Barnett. The famous former slave Dred Scott worked as a porter here from 1857 until his death.[3] Dred Scott's new owners had freed him two months after the U.S. Supreme Court decision. Scott became a local celebrity, greeting visitors at the hotel until he died of tuberculosis on September 17, 1858.[4] References1. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.emporis.com/buildings/279850/barnums-hotel-st-louis-mo-usa|title=Barnum's Hotel|accessdate=2018-05-06}} {{coord|38.623536|-90.186456|display=title}}{{US-hotel-stub}}2. ^{{cite book | author = Walter Barlow Stevens | year = 1909 | title = St. Louis, the Fourth City, 1764-1909, Volume 1 | publisher = The S.
