More on St. Louis, Missouri
Description from Wikipedia:
St. Louis (English IPA: //seɪnt ˈluːɪs//,IPA: //sænt luwi// French: Saint-Louis or St-Louis , IPA: //sɛ̃ lwi//) is an independent city in the U.S. state of Missouri, located near the confluence of the Mississippi River and the Missouri River. St. Louis is at the center of the largest metropolitan area in Missouri. Sometimes written as Saint Louis, the city is named for King Louis IX of France. It is separate from St. Louis County, which borders much of the city itself.
Once the fourth largest single city in the United States, St. Louis' city proper population has since slipped to 52nd. The 1904 World's Fair and 1904 Olympic Games, the first ever held in the United States, were both held in St. Louis. The St. Louis region is home to some of the country's largest privately-held corporations, including Enterprise Rent-A-Car, McBride & Son Homes, Inc., Graybar, Scottrade, Edward Jones, and is also home to some of the largest public corporations, including Emerson, Energizer, Anheuser Busch-InBev, Boeing Integrated Defense Systems, Purina, Express Scripts, Charter Communications, Monsanto Company, and Wachovia Securities.
The city has many nicknames, the most popular being "Gateway City", as it is seen as the Eastern/Western US dividing mark. St. Louis is also called "Gateway to the West" on behalf of the many people who migrated west through St. Louis via the Missouri River (first leg of the Oregon Trail) and other wagon trails.
