These days Lemay, Missouri looks like a place that doesn't have a lot going on. It looks like a blue collar community with older housing, but the community has loads of history. Nearby is the Historic Jefferson Barracks, which is the oldest military instillation west of the Mississippi River. Other things about the community includes that there used to be a lead manufacturer along the Mississippi River. Today, the site that the lead manufacturer sat on is now the River City Casino.

Fun fact. At the very end of the video, the large brick building on the right hand side of the street is the old Hancock #2 Elementary School, which I attended in the 1970s and 80s. It was built in 1913 and closed as a school in 1993. Great video!

It's obvious that you are not from the area. Lemay is not pronounced Lee May'. It's Le'may, one word with the accent on Le.
