The Gateway Arch : An Unlikely Masterpiece

By Tim O'Neill

The Arch, turning 50 in 2015, endures as the trademark of St. Louis, a striking focal point along the river that still gives the region life. The Gateway Arch: An Unlikely Masterpiece will follow the story of St. Louis and its Gateway Arch including the inspired selection of the design by Eero Saarinen that is known worldwide. Learn more about how the Arch towers over an old fur-trading village site and how a fraudulent election provided the critical down payment.
