Where have street cars gone? - CIVITAS-STL

Why was the Loop Trolley a failure? Why don’t trains stop at Union Station anymore? What used to be on the Arch grounds? Why is Downtown dead? Where did all the streetcars go? Join Civitas alum and St. Olaf Senior Gabe Lepak for a conversation on American urbanism in the past 100 years as we answer these questions and more while we examine the policies, events, and players behind the way our neighborhoods are designed.


This fun event will be held on Saturday, February 4, 2023, 1:00 pm–3:00 pm, (while Gabe is still home on winter break!) at Grant’s View Library (9700 Musick Rd., St. Louis, MO 63123).
