This area was once known as the notorious Gashouse District, where fumes from chemical plants kept out all but the poorest immigrants. The district produced the fearsome Gashouse Gang in the late 1800s; since there was little to steal on their own turf, they would travel to other neighborhoods and rob the criminals there.
In the 1930s, baseball's St. Louis Cardinals were also called "The Gashouse Gang" for their rough style of play. |
