The building that is now Simon's on the Waterfront was erected
in 1867 as the St. Charles Wine Hall. The name is still
partially visible on the north outside wall. Notice that the
original cast iron balcony with a grape design is still in
place. From 1890-1923 it was used as Hermann's high school. The
first floor was the school's gymnasium. There were 4-inch
upright steel poles in the gym supporting the second floor
classrooms. It is said that Hermann's basketball teams had a
home-court advantage because they knew how to dodge the poles!
Simon's is a great night spot with weekend entertainment, and
the adjoining restaurant serves lunch and dinner.
