Gateway Arch National Park was pleased to welcome U.S. Secretary of the Interior Deb Haaland for a media event and meeting with park partners in Kiener Plaza this past March. Secretary Haaland has been touring communities around the country and sharing new federal investments from the Great American Outdoors Act. As part of the investments, Secretary Haaland announced that Gateway Arch National Park received $17 million to go toward the next phase of restoration of the Old Courthouse, which will restore the upper floors and exterior of this historic building.
Secretary Haaland shared, “I’ve traveled across the country to see how these investments are having a real impact on visitors, wildlife and local economies, improving visitor safety, repaving roads, protecting historic structures and safeguarding against the impacts of the climate crisis are ways that [the Great American Outdoors Act] is being felt in every corner of America.”
As our supporters know, Gateway Arch Park Foundation is currently working with the National Park Service (NPS) on the initial phase of renovations for the Old Courthouse, which kicked off last year. We are thrilled NPS received additional funding to ensure the integrity and longevity of this important structure. When we can leverage both federal funding and private investment from the unwavering generosity of our Foundation donors, we can make a monumental impact on our city.
