Frequently Asked Questions

Right below the Gateway Arch, on the historic cobbled levee. The visit begins at the gangway, with your head tilted back.
Yes, for the essentials. The Gateway Arch stands above the levee, the Old Courthouse is a few minutes’ walk, and Citygarden, Busch Stadium and Laclede’s Landing are all reachable without transport.
Ride to the top of the Gateway Arch, visit the museum beneath the park lawns, then walk to the Old Courthouse and Citygarden. Finish at Laclede’s Landing when the kitchens start smelling of barbecue.
A 192-metre stainless steel arch raised in the 1960s to mark the westward expansion, and the tallest monument in the United States. An internal tram of capsule-like cars carries visitors to the top.
The bends of the Mississippi, the downtown towers and the Illinois plains on the far bank. The angled windows at the summit make you lean out over the drop, a sensation not quickly forgotten: anyone uneasy with heights or tight spaces will want to think twice.
The old courthouse with its green dome, aligned with the arch. It was within these walls that the enslaved man Dred Scott sued for his freedom in the mid-19th century, a case that marked the country deeply.
The warehouse district on the north edge of the park: cobbled streets and the last brick buildings of the great 19th-century river port, converted into restaurants, offices and venues. They recall the days when dozens of steamboats moored side by side along the levee.
Smoked ribs, thin-crust pizza and gooey butter cake, the local butter cake born here from a baker’s mistake that became a tradition.
The US dollar and English. Credit cards are accepted everywhere and restaurant tipping runs 15 to 20 percent.
Spring and autumn. Midwest summers are hot and humid, though the pools at Citygarden then offer a cooling break among the towers.
