Tourism  
St. Louis once stood as an island of civilization in the vast, unsettled American West. Today, it's a heartland metropolis with an urbanity that doesn't quite hide all the rough frontier edges. It's a city with multiple personalities: a geographical and cultural crossroads, a city of barges and BMWs, of mirrored office towers, tidy brick homes and some of the most gracious mansion-lined streets in the country. The famous Gateway Arch rises dramatically at the Mississippi's edge, ever changing according to light and the viewer's perspective, but always magnificent and beautiful.
