Day
1

City Museum- Kick-off your awesome three-day Grad Trip with a visit to an unbelievably cool place where imaginations run wild! Housed in a recycled 600,000 square foot shoe company, this ever-evolving “museum” is a wonderful, electric fusion of post-apocalyptic playground, midway funhouse, surrealistic tree house pavilion, and more than four stories of absolute architectural marvel created from ordinary, unique, and amazing found objects. The fabulous brainchild of internationally acclaimed artist Bob Cassilly, the City Museum opened for visitors in 1997 to the vigorous roar of approval of young and old, alike. “Grown” from the very stuff of the city, this beyond-awesome St. Louis institution springs from urban roots deeper than all others. Scavenging resources solely within municipal borders for its reclaimed materials and turning them into fantastic playthings and whimsical objects d’art, City Museum boasts fun features like cool salvaged bridges, archaic construction cranes, “actual miles” of tile, and two abandoned planes! The Museum affords visitors of all ages and opportunity to explore a re-purposed would be full of unbelievable interactive adventure! Creator Cassilly says: “City Museum makes you want to know. The point in not to learn every fast, but to say, “Wow, that’s wonderful. And if it’s wonderful, it’s worth preserving.”

Gateway Arch- Journey to the Top Tram Ride

A trip to the top of this fabulous historic landmark, the nation’s tallest monument, iconic designer “tribute in steel” to the Westward Expansion of the United State, and most-recognizable Midwest attraction! The magnificent Arch springs powerfully from the riverfront Jefferson National Expansion Memorial in downtown St. Louis – near the starting point of the Lewis and Clark Expedition – to a towering 630 feet, (63 stories!) cutting an imposing silhouette against the city skyline. A quick tram ride to the summit tenders an incredible bird’s eye view – you can see 30 miles in any direction on a clear day1 Be sure to check out the Museum of Westward Expansion located in the visitor center just inside the Arch.

Union Station and More- St. Louis Union Station combines historic elegance with modern and stunning detail. Luxury hotel rooms, breathtaking wedding venues as well as an expansive and modern conference areas, leave nothing to be desired. Union Station is and will be a future top tier family friendly destination boasting a one-of-a-kind aquarium, a 200-foot Ferris wheel and many other unforgettable family attractions.
