I got the pork, it was really gross but it didn't have any hair so that was a plus! Still wouldn't recommend.

Mmmm,, not great, innit? The building looks nice, but the policies inforced within its wall are lacking, to say the least.

did you know the inmates in here have ZERO heat. it is currently 6° outside with a wind chill of…read more-4°. These are inmates still awaiting trial inmates that could be innocent. Inmates that did things they needed to do to survive. The living conditions are unhumanly. it is so cold that their body parts are going numb. They have acknowledged the fact that the heat isn't working but continue to let it blow out ice cold and won't offer extra blankets socks or any thing to keep them warm while something is messed up IN THEIR GOVERNMENT BUILDING. but the floors that they actually work on have heat. They also have inmates sleeping on the floor or plastic bins. Sleeping on an ice cold floor while there is no heat one super thin blanket and a pillow if your lucky. Their tablets not working half of the time so they have no contact with their loved ones AND no money to buy food. The inmates as of today have not been out of their cell in 4 days. They have been surviving in less than freezing temperatures and inhumane condition. Most of these "criminals" are in there for things like traffic tickets that they missed court for, crimes they didn't have anything to do with, and simply being held for another county. On top of everything they will not answer their phones for a single person. I called about a week ago with a question about adding money to an inmates account and got hung up on.

I don't think the Food is not good. And the Cells are pretty dirty. Lots of other inmates .read more

Gateway Arch - Got the top to ourselves

We had a great time! My daughter is active duty Air Force so we were able to get a good discount…read more You are able to learn a lot, they do a cute movie on the wall that shows the history of the arch being built. It would be great if the windows were larger so you could see a little bit more, but it's someplace everyone should visit once. If you are claustrophobic, the capsule ride to the top may not be the easiest trip, but it's worth a little three minutes of discomfort. We had a great guide. She was friendly and knowledgeable. It was over 100° when we were here and the inside was cool and comfortable despite the heat

My first time visiting the Gateway Arch, and I'm so glad I finally got to see it up close!…read more I've seen this thing from about 10,000 feet, but seeing it from the ground is a completely different experience. The architecture is seriously impressive, and I loved getting close enough to actually see the welding beads in the stainless steel. It made me stop and think about how in the world they actually put this massive thing together. There's something really cool about seeing the little details on something that looks so impossibly perfect from a distance. Parking on a Saturday afternoon was not exactly easy, so thankfully a friend dropped us off and we were able to walk around, get a closer look, and take some photos without turning the visit into a parking expedition. We didn't go up to the observation area this time. I'm not entirely convinced I'm ready to be packed into a tiny tram going up inside the Arch. But I think I'd like to give it a try someday. I also had no idea there was an underground museum! Apparently I need to do a little more research before my next visit because I definitely want to check that out too. Overall, this is one of those places that really lives up to its iconic status. It was fun finally getting to see it from ground level instead of through an airplane window. If you're visiting St. Louis for the first time, definitely make a stop here. Even if you just walk around the Arch, it's worth seeing up close.

In 2012, the Dred Scott Heritage Foundation, the National Parks Service & Harry Weber the sculptor…read morewere incredibly proud to unveil a statue of Dred & Harriet Scott on the south lawn of the Old Courthouse. The Scotts are depicted standing close, holding their heads high, their eyes directed not only Archward & across the Mississippi River, but toward a horizon of freedom in which they believed enough to one day finally see. Dred & Harriet Scott were American-born slaves of African descent, filed suit against Irene Emerson for their freedom. After several appeals & new lawsuits, the Dred Scott case reached the Supreme Court. The final verdict stated that Scott was still a slave, still the property of his masters & that he was neither a free man nor a US citizen. The decision outraged many & was integral in leading the United States to the brink of civil war.

One of the more famous landmark Supreme Court rulings is known as the Dred Scott Decision. In 1857,…read moreit was decided that neither Dred Scott nor any other person of African ancestry could claim citizenship in the United States, and therefore Scott could not bring suit in federal court under diversity of citizenship rules. Moreover, Scott's temporary residence outside Missouri did not bring about his emancipation under the Missouri Compromise, as the court ruled this to have been unconstitutional, as it would "improperly deprive Scott's owner of his legal property." Yeah, that happened and it was one of the contributing factors that led to the United States Civil War. President Abraham Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation in 1863, and the post-Civil War Reconstruction Amendments - the Thirteenth, Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments - nullified the decision. This statue was installed in front of the Old Courthouse and dedicated on June 8, 2012. The location of the Old Courthouse serves as a reminder of the place where Dred and Harriet Scott began their legal fight for freedom. The plaque at the base reads, "Dred and Harriet Scott filed suit for their freedom at this courthouse in 1846. Their case reached the United States Supreme Court and was decided in 1857. The court ruled that the Scotts and all African Americans were not citizens of the United States. Opposition to the decision was one of the causes of the Civil War and led to the Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fifteenth Amendments to the Constitution. The Scotts' struggle for freedom stands as a defining moment in the history of the Civil Rights Movement. Dedicated June 8, 2012. Gift of the Dred Scott Heritage Foundation. Harry Weber, sculptor.
