The Gateway Arch, designed by Finnish-born, American-educated architect Eero Saarinen, was erected to commemorate President Thomas Jefferson's Louisiana Purchase of 1803 and to celebrate St. Louis' central role in the rapid westward expansion that followed |

 Halloween is here! That means consumes, tricks, and more importantly - treats! Residents are invited to the YOUNG LIFE BUILDING on Friday night to enjoy several festivities starting at 6:00pm. (The event has been moved from Memorial Park due to predicted rain).
Trick or treating often starts around 5pm, and drivers are asked to drive safely and be on the lookout for little trick or treaters as they walk from house to house. If you're participating in handing out candy, make sure your porch light is on!
