At the all-star game, the grass was mowed so the St. Louis Arch and the courthouse were in center field. Please cite your source.
Read this article on mowing grass patterns - very interesting and informative.

When it comes to downtown St. Louis tourist activities many people say, "been there, done that." Really? When? Many native Louisians Saint were not in the ark or Becky Thatcher sailed since childhood.
Here is a list of favorite attractions St. Louis that are worth visiting even if you do not get out of town guests in tow.
The Gateway Arch. Ok, maybe you swear that you never put you in the cramped capsule for the ride to the top again.But have you been to the platform Malcolm Martin Memorial Park to view the other side of the river? It's right next to the Casino Queen, so it is easily accessible from the deck of EADS, which is a tourist attraction in itself. This park is also home to the Gateway Geyser, to plan to go when the fountain 630 feet off to the best show. Best of all, the park is free.

The St. Louis Arch
When you see pictures of St. Louis, there is always a lighthouse that rises above the other, the arc. The St. Louis Arch, also known as the Jefferson National Expansion Memorial, stands 630 feet in the air. It's more than twice as high as the Statue of Liberty, which is at least 305 feet. So this means that the roof is quite high. An interesting note, the arch is 630 feet wide.
When you arrive at the bow, ready to go through a security checkpoint. From there you continue on to buy tickets for a ride to the top of the vault.Waiting for your tram ride, you can browse through the Museum of Westward Expansion or shop at one of two gift shops.
When it is time for the start, you will get in a small capsule, with five seats. When I say small image inside a dryer! Once seated inside, you're ready for a four-minute trek to the summit. As you climb, balance capsule slightly as he stands up in the curve of the leg arc. As you go, you will see stairs leading all the way to the top. Do not get excited. Visitors are not allowed to use the stairs, totaling 1076.After reaching the summit, you will be in an observation room with small rectangular windows for viewing....
St. Louis Valentine's Day Mass Wedding Planned Under Gateway Arch ...
The St. Louis Arch will provide a romantic backdrop on Wednesday for close to 100 couples who plan a Valentine’s Day wedding. The mass wedding is sponsored by a country radio station, WIL-FM and its morning disc jockey, Cornbread, according to the radio station’s Web site.
Ninety-two couples will get the complete package – flowers, reception, free legal ceremony, photographs and even rings. (The number coincides with the radio station’s spot on the dial.) Hundreds of other couples are still expected to show up and be part of the ceremony, although they won’t get the extras. The radio station chose the winners through Web site entries. The 92 couples chosen get the entire treatment, but any other couple is welcome to join the station at the Arch on Feb. 14, 7 a.m., to be legally wed. (Couples may also choose to renew their vows.)
Mass weddings will take place in several places around the world, but they’re still a new phenomenen in the United States. Many cities, like St. Louis, are considering them a way to provide an economic boom at a time when tourism is down. The mass weddings attract couples and friends to the town, generating far more income than the cost of the event. Plus, as in the case of the St. Louis radio station, the publicity generated can be, well, priceless.
