On this day in history, Eero Saarinen’s Gateway Arch design won the architectural competition for the Jefferson National Expansion Memorial. But what else could have stood in its place...? 🧐 Thanks to the hard work of our park partners at Gateway Arch National Park, nearly 200 design entries from this competition have been digitized and are now available online!

Today's #ThrowbackThursday takes us back to March 2015, when the North Gateway at Gateway Arch National Park began its transformation with the demolition of the old parking garage. Now in its place — a 7.5-acre section of urban greenland that features a natural amphitheater, gardens, walking paths, and the best views of the St. Louis skyline! We've also heard it called a "parking garage for pollinators!" 🦋 | Gateway Arch Park Foundation
