United States Court House and Custom House, Federal courthouse in St Louis, United States.

The United States Court House and Custom House features Classical Revival architecture with marble walls, bronze fixtures, and symmetrical E-shaped layout with a semi-enclosed courtyard.

Built in the 1870s, this federal facility served customs operations, court proceedings, and postal services, housing multiple district courts until structural concerns emerged in the 1890s.

The courthouse represents federal institutional architecture of the late 19th century, incorporating local materials like Colorado Yule marble in its construction.

Multiple federal agencies operate within the building, which includes dedicated courtrooms, judicial offices, and administrative spaces for government proceedings.

The original stones from an earlier demolished courthouse were transported to Milwaukee and integrated into the construction of the Basilica of St. Josaphat.
