At the top of the tallest building in a cluster of red brick buildings overlooking a neighborhood in South St. Louis, there is one building towering above the rest. Painted on that building, one sign stands taller than the others and cannot be covered up; it is visible from all parts of the nearby metropolis. At the tallest point of the brewery, a bold white letter spelling out "Lemp" is painted on dark red bricks. Although it just has four letters, those letters say plenty about St. Louis's lore and history, and ghosts that just won’t die..
