The KING'S DAUGHTERS HOME, southeast corner of Webster St. and West Blvd., a two-and-a-half-story, yellow-brick structure, is the home of aged members of the King's Daughters, an international charitable organization established in 1886. The Missouri circle, founded in 1888, is one of the oldest chapters in the United States. - Missouri: A Guide to the "Show Me" State, Tour 15, pg. 557.

The King's Daughters Home is much as described in the Guide.  The building is at the location indicated and is a two-and-a-story yellow brick structure.  It appears to continue to have the same function and there is a sign in front indicating it continues as the King's Daughters Home.
