== Honors and awards == * Her home with Oscar Chopin in Cloutierville was built by Alexis Cloutier in the early part of the 19th century. In the late 20th century, the house was designated as the Kate Chopin House, a [[National Historic Landmark]] (NHL), because of her literary significance. The house was adapted for use as the Bayou Folk Museum. On October 1, 2008, the house was destroyed by a fire, with little left but the chimney.<ref>{{cite news|last=Welborn|first=Vickie|title=Loss of Kate Chopin House to fire 'devastating'|newspaper=The Town Talk|url=http://thetowntalk.com/article/20081001/NEWS01/81001015|date=October 1, 1888}}{{Dead link|date=July 2018 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref> * In 1990, Chopin was honored with a star on the [[St. Louis Walk of Fame]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.stlouiswalkoffame.org/inductees/?view=achievement|title=St. Louis Walk of Fame Inductees|last=St. Louis Walk of Fame|publisher=stlouiswalkoffame.org|access-date=April 25, 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121031162946/http://www.stlouiswalkoffame.org/inductees/?view=achievement|archive-date=October 31, 2012|url-status=dead}}</ref> * In 2012, she was commemorated with an iron bust of her head at the Writer's Corner in the [[Central West End]] neighborhood of St. Louis, across the street from Left Bank Books.<ref>{{cite web|title=Kate Chopin Bust Unveiled|date=March 14, 2012 |url=http://www.westendword.com/Articles-News-Briefs-c-2012-03-13-179501.114137-Kate-Chopin-Bust-Unveiled.html#axzz2pn4y8WAA|publisher=West End Word|access-date=January 8, 2014}}</ref>
