"On May 4, 1908, a building permit was issued to the Police Department, City of St. Louis, for a three-story brick police station with iron girders, estimated to cost $35,959. J. A. Smith and W. R. Faulkner were recorded as architects for the building and McCully Construction Co. the contractor. The Page Boulevard Police Station holds a significant position among St. Louis public buildings for its architectural merit and as an exemplary product of a new political era in municipal government.
