This shelter is one of a pair of octagonal pavilions built in 1870-71 following designs by Eugene Greenleaf, and referred to as the "Humboldt" pavilions because of their proximity to the monumental bronze statue of Alexander von Humboldt erected in 1878. The Humboldt North pavilion cost almost $1,000 and is distinguished from its southern partner by its latticed, weather vane cupola, and its gold and dark green color scheme." ~ Tower Grove Park
