The Gateway to the West has drawn adventurers, various communities and entrepreneurs to its riverbanks for more than 200 years. This vibrant city offers professional sports, live music, world-class beer and some of the best Italian cuisine this side of the Atlantic.


Gateway Arch

Completed in October 1965 the Gateway Arch was designed to last 1,000 years. The Arch was built to represent Thomas Jefferson's dream of a United States that stretched from the Pacific to the Atlantic Coast. At a spectacular 630 feet (192 meters), the monumental structure features a stainless steel facade that represents the city's legacy as the Gateway to the West. A tram zips to the top of the monument and one can see 360-degree views for 30 miles (48 kilometers) around the city. The Arch stands within the larger Jefferson National Expansion Memorial and is a testament to American engineering at its finest.
