St. Louis Arch Grounds Competition Releases Shortlist Filled with Architecture Greats

Back in December, we knew we were right to get excited by the news that St. Louis and the National Park Service had decided to finally make the area around the city’s most iconic symbol, Eero Saarinen‘s Gateway Arch, more accessible and appealing. We got another hint of good things to come when the Framing a Modern Masterpiece project announced its all-star jury back in mid-January. But for all our enthusiasm, we had no idea how incredible the shortlist would be once said jury had dug through all the entries.
