The Mississippi Valley Trust Company Building is a historic building in St. Louis, Missouri, USA.
The location is at 401 Pine Street in Downtown St. Louis, Missouri.
The two-story building was completed in 1896. It was designed by architectural firm Eames & Young in the Beaux-Arts architectural style.
It was home to the Mississippi Valley Trust Company, a local bank which "financed transportation and communication networks in the St. Louis region, and was a supporter of the St. Louis World's Fair". The bank was later acquired by the Mercantile Bancorporation, which was in turn acquired by the Firstar Corporation, and eventually U.S. Bancorp. Later, the building was home to a restaurant. It is now home to Covo, a San Fransisco based coworking space. It is also home to a coffee shop and cocktail bar called Trust, a homage to the building's origins.
It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since May 25, 2001. Additionally, it has been designated as a city landmark by the City of St. Louis, Missouri.
