IMHO, all those Colorado, Kansas (pre-Civil War), Oklahoma, Wyoming, Nebraska, etc. FRB-member banks would have their FRB home situs in the Eastern District of Missouri (FRB Kansas). However, it just happens that, generally speaking, if one can sue someone in a U.S. district court, it can be in any one of them (yes, if you so desired you could sue your neighbor through the Southern District of New York even if he lives right next door). However, their members in the Federal Reserve Ban of Kansas City puts that contractual situs in the Eastern District of Missouri. Just like old times (re: Louisiana Purchase), eh?
For what is worth, the old French street signs have returned to downtown St. Louis.
For some reason, the movie Edge of Tomorrow and its persistent reference to the Louvre Pyramid built by Grand Orient socialist, Francois Mitterrand comes to mind.
