St. Louis' Gateway Arch is 630 feet / 192 meters tall. There is an observation deck at the apex. The slit windows look down and out because the Arch is triangular in cross section. This side faces west over downtown. The eastern view overlooks the Mississippi River and dull-looking industrial and residential areas in Illinois.
Our city center ain't that big or dynamic but it was, shall we say, home to my desk for 47 years. I know my way around.
