Lee remained the only Chinese immigrant until 1869, when a group of about 250 immigrants (mostly men) arrived seeking factory work.[3] In January 1870, another group of Chinese immigrants arrived, including some women.[4] By 1900, the immigrant population of St. Louis Chinatown had settled at between 300 and 400.[5] Chinatown established itself as the home to Chinese hand laundries, which in turn represented more than half of the city's laundry facilities.[6] Other businesses included groceries, restaurants, tea shops, barber shops, and opium dens.[7] Between 1958 and the mid-1960s, Chinatown was condemned and demolished for urban renewal and to make space for Busch Memorial Stadium.[2] See also
