Reviewed By jmpierce282 - De Soto, United States

A very nice area with beautiful houses, some almost mansion size. Well worth a walk through the neighborhood. It was too cold the day we were there. But, sadly to say there were other houses outside the area that was just as elegant at one time that has not been taken care of, some uninhabitable. Show less

Walter Cronkite Memorial

The Walter Cronkite Memorial was the vision of Dr. Robert Vartabedian, President of Missouri Western State University, to create a fitting memorial to St. Joseph's beloved native son and one of the most important and trusted voices in our country's history. Dr. Vartabedian's vision was captured by Missouri Western art faculty members Eric Fuson and David Harris, who designed the unique artistic display illustrating Cronkite's distinguished career with CBS television. This memorial was made possible with funding from the David and Shirley Bradley Endowment. Much like Walter Cronkite, the Bradley family has left a journalistic legacy by bringing the important news of the day to the general public. We are grateful for their many contributions to the St. Joseph community and to Missouri Western State University.

Our family reunion group of 14 folks visited the Walter Cronkite Memorial displays at the Missouri Western State University - Spratt Hall earlier this month. Many of our senior adults in our group remembered hearing and watching WC earlier in their lives. The displays and information given about this man's incredible talent and career were most enjoyable to read about and see. Be sure to visit the news casting room on the second floor where you can take a picture (or pictures) of yourself or group sitting at his desk, speaking on his telephone and wearing his glasses ......all for free. Most enjoyable visit to this memorial.
