Marker text:

A YOUNG CARPENTER'S WEDDING GIFT 1872
White balustrades gleamed against the new red bricks when, German born, Bernard Taubeler presented this house to his bride.
A century later it became St. Peters City Hall, 1967-1976 and Police Headquarters, 1974-82.

I can find very little other than what is on the historic marker.
The current police department is in the Justice Center, huge and fancy.
St. Peters in the 70s and 80 was small. 486 people in 1970 to 15,000 by 1980 and almost 60,000 today.
So, with only 486 people this building was the perfect size for the police department of that day.

Visit Instructions:
To log a visit, you must post a photo of you in front of the building described, with your GPS in the photo. No drive by photos.

I have had NO problems with taking photos of Police stations but please respect the fact that some services may be nervous about having their photo taken and inquire as to why... I have found that once things are explained they are more than happy to let me photograph the building, crest, chief... (they are people too!)
