Episode Details

Discover how a couple’s side project turned into a viral sensation: Houses in STL, started by Dawn Griffin and Jay David, is resurrecting St. Louis’s past through jaw-dropping before-and-after visuals of iconic buildings and neighborhoods. What began as a fun hobby in early 2026 exploded in April when they dove deep into archives, amassing over 20K followers across Instagram and TikTok. Jay spends hours researching old photos from the Missouri History Museum and newspapers, while Dawn calls them the city’s “baby pictures.” This isn’t just nostalgia—it’s a dynamic, digital time machine that lets locals see their city evolve, one historic snapshot at a time.
