A Before B After Before After Park Over the Highway North Gateway Park The design starts with a new, dramatic park that will extend over I-44 between Chestnut and Market Streets will join the Arch grounds with the Old Courthouse, finally physically connecting St. Louis to its most famous landmark. It will allow visitors to walk from the Old Courthouse to the Arch grounds to the riverfront on one continuous greenway, without a curb or stair step in their way. Starting in Fall 2014, the current Arch parking garage will be replaced with four acres of usable park space for festivals, concerts, and community events. It will include a Lewis and Clark Explorers’ Garden for children with a raised walkway featuring views of Eads Bridge and the Mississippi River. Washington Avenue will end at Memorial Drive allowing the park to expand directly to Eads Bridge and Leonor K. Sullivan Boulevard along the river. C Before D After Before After Riverfront A New Entrance to the Arch Leonor K. Sullivan Boulevard will be elevated, reducing flooding occurrences that close the Riverfront during the year. This will provide access for pedestrians, bicyclists and vehicles to a 1.5 mile promenade for activities and commerce between Biddle Street and Chouteau Avenue, with connections to existing bicycle trail networks. A new glass entrance to the museum below the Arch will face the Park Over the Highway and the Old Courthouse and bring natural light underground to create a fitting terminus of the Gateway Mall. Museum exhibits will be redesigned to tell the story of Westward Expansion and St. Louis in new, interactive ways. CityArchRiver 2015 is a transformational project that will physically connect the Arch to the city and river that surround it for the first time in the iconic landmark’s history. Visitors will have easier, safe access to the grounds and more to do when they get there. Learn how you can be part of the transformation at www.cityarchriver.org.
