(7-9-19) Paul came to visit me in St. Louis, and he really wanted to ride to the top of the arch! Enjoy this video of our journey to the top of the arch with a view from the top!

I have fond memories visiting the Arch when I was a little kid. It was about 1980. The elevators left an impression on me. . I visited my mothers family from Arizona... Good times!

A bedroom in one of my rental properties has a perfect view of the Arch from 7.76 miles away. If anyone wants to know, as of April 2021, rides to the top are still closed, but the grounds and lobby are open. Call ahead to see if anything has changed.
