Photography of the Bevo Mill neighborhood in St. Louis, MO

The neighborhood's name comes from the Bevo Mill restaurant, built in 1916, a local landmark that was designed in the style of Dutch and German windmills for grinding grain. The name, Bevo, came from Anheuser-Busch's hop flavored soft-drink, most popular during the thirteen years of alcohol prohibition in America. Located at the heart of South St. Louis, Bevo is bounded by Chippewa to the north, Missouri Pacific Railroad to the east, Bates and Leona to the southeast, Holly Hills Boulevard to the south, and Christy and South Kingshighway to the west.
