There's a car in a driveway so it's not a street with alleys behind it. Or is it? Ames Place? Are there any driveways there? Looks like cedar shingles, which seems Clayton-ish. Very mysterious. Ames Place final answer.

Given some of your recent posting, St. Francis de Sales Oratory. That's a pretty fancy side entry!

Google streetview. You can also see it in the satellite view.

^ Correct!  I had a feeling those others might give it away, haha.  One of my favorite little architectural features anywhere in St. Louis.

It's a neat feature, one of those little character-building details in the city that I would never have known about had someone not explicitly pointed it out.

^I wonder if that has something to do with the days when one of the auxiliary bishops held forth there. Given its location it almost has to have been reserved for clerical use. The place used to be informally called the "Cathedral of the South Side." And if a bishop has his chair there . . . well . . . ? Neat!

Fun fact, one of two (at least) green spaces named for Ellen Clark, the late wife of Clayco's Robert Clark:

BJH's Ellen S. Clark Hope Plaza

SLU's Ellen Clark Sculpture Park

^ This is a good one...

I thought maybe SAFB, but what's out there appear to be shaped more like the Climatron than this...

Edit:  Also thought maybe the NWS out by the huge Nike plant in St. Chuck...but this looks a bit different than that too.
