History
St. Louis grew as a Mississippi River trading hub with French and American layers visible in its neighborhoods and the iconic Gateway Arch marking westward expansion.
Conservation
Stay on sidewalks and public paths, pack out trash, and respect private property; urban scavenger hunts can concentrate foot traffic—spread out stops and avoid crowding fragile sites.
