Goodbye, Jefferson National Expansion Memorial. Hello, Gateway Arch National Park.
Most visitors to the Gateway Arch in St. Louis, Mo., might not even realize that the site is also a national park originally named for Thomas Jefferson.
“The name ‘Jefferson National Expansion Memorial’ was established long before the Gateway Arch was envisioned, and has simply never been adopted by our millions of visitors,” says Mike Ward, Superintendent at the Gateway Arch National Park. “We hope this new name will best reflect the magnificent renovations and visitor experience we will unveil in a few months.”
