Competition comment period open this week. To celebrate the ongoing effort, City to River is hosting a community event tonight at the Schlafly Tap Room
Yesterday, five exciting visions were revealed that point toward a bright future for the Arch Grounds and downtown St. Louis.
The proposals unveiled make clear that the teams agree with City to River’s supporters that highway removal is the ultimate solution to fully reconnecting the city with the Arch and riverfront.
From four of the five finalist teams:
“City to River articulates an enormous number of benefits arising from such a scheme…”
- SOM Team
“..the benefits of removing the highway altogether are clear...”
- MVVA Team
“Full Circle’s grand loop of transportation facilities could be easily integrated into its [City to River’s] design."
-Weiss-Manfredi Team
"We predict fanfare should the elevated highway that cuts off Laclede’s Landing be removed."
- The Behnisch Team
Come to the Schlafly Tap Room Club Room tonight (7:30 p.m., 2100 Locust Street) to show your support for highway removal! Have your voice heard on this pivotal regional issue. The event is FREE.

Were there 5 finalists or only 4?
Five.
May I know which team won the said arch design competition? And do you have some pictures from the event?
does happening a window open far away from the thermostat cause the AC to run harder?
