"Loretta at the Union Station Information Desk is a true gem. I asked about exploring St. Louis through a unique cultural lens, and she instantly lit up and basically curated a 3 day experience on the spot of restaurants, museums, art, and even which train to take. Her knowledge, warmth, and love for St. Louis blew me away! She didn’t just give me directions, she gave me a sense of belonging and recommendations that were unique to the experience I wanted to have. Every city needs a Loretta!!!"

"Great place to visit and learn of our American Culture. The Gateway Arch is truly a historic monument every American needs to visit. It is the tallest man made structure. The view is out of the world. You also get to learn the history how the Gateway Arch (Gateway to the West) was made in the Tucker Theater which is an inspiring story in itself."

"Parking can be a bit expensive. The food selection is pretty large. The entrances move depending on the show that is in the center. There are plenty of bathrooms spaced everywhere. It is centrally located with plenty of places to eat outside near by."
