architecture_sunrise2Are you looking for rolling hills, a winding river or a turn of the century downtown for your next film? How about Victorian mansions, or quaint family farmsteads? 

St. Joseph offers virtually unlimited opportunities for your production, from a beautifully restored movie palace to a historical cemetery with more than 30 mausoleums. St. Joseph has unparalleled history spanning from the summer of 1804 when Lewis & Clark recorded their amazing experiences while camped on the banks of the Missouri River and the start of the Pony Express in 1860 to the unexpected demise of the notorious bank robber Jesse James in 1882. The city has preserved this era through an astonishing collection of architectural structures that still stand today.dusk-at-the-riverfront
