Beckman Bakers and Confectioners Supply Company. The home was designed by architect William A Lucas to be a multigenerational home to house Mr. and Mrs. Beckman and their daughter and her family. The fleur-de-lys symbol appears on the end ... more ps of the chimney supports which inspired the name for the Inn.

It represents the strong influence the French traders had on the city and the confluence of the Mississippi and Missouri rivers.
