The Gateway Arch sprouts like an odd weed through the trees of the Jefferson National Expansion Memorial in downtown St. Louis.

Floodwater swamps the western approach to the Eads Bridge, the oldest span crossing the Mississippi River. This view was taken from the Gateway Arch grounds looking east to the Illinois side of the river.

The Eat-Rite Diner at 7th Street and Choteau Avenue is a local landmark. Naturally, the name and the fare constitute an oxymoron.

I'm not sure what a "steet" is, but it apparently needs some form of lighting. This is on the walk next to the Morgan Street Brewing Co. on Laclede's Landing, near the Mississippi riverfront.

The front of the Quaker church on Park Avenue, facing the 10th Street pedestrian mall.

Flowers bloom in the median of Market Street leading to the Civil Courts building.

The last remnant of old Busch Stadium lies about 100 yards from the new Busch Stadium.

Mississippi River floodwater submerges the intersection at Washington Avenue and Lenore K. Sullivan Drive,
just beneath the Gateway Arch.

A diving catch outside Busch Stadium.

Morning at the Gateway Arch on the riverfront in downtown.
