Jefferson National Expansion Memorial
The Jefferson National Expansion Memorial is a park located in St. Louis, Missouri, near the starting point of the Lewis and Clark Expedition. It was designated as a National Memorial by Executive Order 7523, on December 21, 1935, and is maintained by the National Park Service (NPS).
The park was established to commemorate:
*the Louisiana Purchase, and the subsequent westward movement of American explorers and pioneers;
*the first civil government west of the Mississippi River;
*the debate over slavery raised by the ''Dred Scott'' case.
The memorial consists of a park along the Mississippi River on the site of the earliest buildings of St. Louis; the Old Courthouse, a former state and federal courthouse that saw the origins of the ''Dred Scott'' case; the Museum of Westward Expansion; and most notably the Gateway Arch, a steel catenary arch that has become the definitive icon of the city.
