I had to reach into the archives to find this image. This was what Lowry Mall, on the MU campus, looked like during the rainy summer of 1997. Long before University Bookstore had a strangling hegemony on campus book sales, a second option called Missouri Bookstore existed. It was on Lowry Mall, right next to McDonalds. They mysteriously lost their lease a couple years later and were forced to leave...much to the delight of the forces that inhabited University Bookstore. It was a nice place to get a bagel and sit in the sun between classes. In the background is the tower of Jesse Hall, enshrouded in scaffolding.
