cause impairment to the Memorial, and 

all enhancements will be required to be 

located in such a manner as to preserve 

the integrity of the National Historic 

Landmark and National Register 

Historic District. 

In addition to considering the 

‘‘winning’’ ideas from the competition, 

the NPS will continue the educational 

and interpretive programs currently 

offered at the Memorial and expand 

opportunities for visitors to participate 

in more interactive experiences across 

the Memorial grounds. The grounds 

surrounding the Gateway Arch will be 

managed in such a way as to 

accommodate and promote more visitor 

activities and special events than are 

currently provided. 

The NPS will actively coordinate with 

the city and State to enhance the 

pedestrian environment around the 

Memorial by developing a unifying 

streetscape along the Gateway Mall and 

the other streets adjacent to the 

Memorial, including Leonor K. Sullivan 

Boulevard and the riverfront levee. 

The ROD includes a statement of the 

decision made, synopses of other 

alternatives considered, the basis for the 

decision, a description of the 

environmentally preferable alternative, 

a finding on impairment of park 

resources and values, a listing of 

measures to minimize environmental 

harm, and an overview of public 

involvement in the decision-making 

process. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Copies of the ROD can be obtained by 

contacting Superintendent Thomas 

Bradley, Jefferson National Expansion 

Memorial, 11 North 4th Street, St. Louis, 

Missouri 63102. You may also view the
