| Cherokee Indian [gone] St. Louis, MO |

 |
| The fiberglass Cherokee Indian statue in St. Louis was created by Bill Christman and installed in 1985. The statue was about 13 feet tall and stands on an eight-foot-tall base. The statue welcomed visitors to the Cherokee District. It was a donated by the Cherokee Station Merchants Association. The Indian's hand was raised in a gesture of peace. There were Cherokee letters painted on his tablet. In 2021, it was removed following a public meeting in which the statue was found to be not an appropriate representation of the Cherokee Indians. The statue will be displayed at the National Building Arts Center in Sauget, IL. |

Chief Duck was a Choctaw Indian known for his healing skills. He was also known as Doctor Duck. The statue is about five feet tall. I don't know who built the statue or when it was installed. The town was named for the large hill in town where Chief Duck held his war councils. [map]
The Indian & Horse statue has been there since at least 2005. It looks like it originally revolved. There is a hair salon and spa in the building below now. Does anyone know what business the statue was installed for? [map] |
