The Walk of Fame, honoring famous St. Louisans from many occupations, occupies a significant place in the neighboring Loop.

On March 25, 1999, Commerce Bank and the William T. Kemper Foundation presented Joe Edwards, owner of Blueberry Hill and the Tivoli and creator of the Walk of Fame, with a Community Service Award. Edwards began the Walk in 1988. Currently, eighty plaques have been placed along Delmar.

Each year in midMay, additional stars are added to the Walk and the public Is welcome to attend the induction ceremony.

This year a donation from the William T. Kemper and Commerce Bancshares Foundations will support the costs of the ceremony and the publishing of a commemorative book.
