  • Views from the Greenways
    Views from the Greenways MISSION & VISION FOR GREAT RIVERS GREENWAY MISSION OF GREAT RIVERS GREENWAY Great Rivers Greenway makes the St. Louis region a more vibrant place to live, work and play by developing a network of greenways to connect people to their rivers, parks and communities. VISION OF GREAT RIVERS GREENWAY The residents of the St. Louis region voted for and invested in a clear, bold vision – a dynamic network of parks and open spaces linked together by greenways, connecting our communities so people can live life outside. The network of greenways strengthens the social, economic and environmental well-being of our region. Community members proudly invest in, care for and champion greenways for years to come. WHAT IS A GREENWAY? Greenways are outdoor spaces connecting people and places. More than just a trail, each greenway is unique, with neighborhoods, businesses, parks and rivers to explore. You can take a walk, go for a run, ride a bike, or get some fresh air. WHO IS GREAT RIVERS GREENWAY? Great Rivers Greenway is a regional parks and trails district, created by a vote of the people in the year 2000 to leave a legacy for future generations. That vote created a sales tax that funds our district to build, bring to life and care for the network of greenways. Our district includes the 1,200 square miles and nearly 2 million citizens in St. Louis City, St. Louis County and St. Charles County. BOSCHERT GREENWAY St. Charles County The Boschert Greenway links the Missouri River and the Katy Trail, goes through Historic Downtown St.

  • St. Louis Urban Tree Canopy Assessment Forest Releaf of Missouri Donna Coble, Executive Director Mike Walsh, Forestry Programs Manager
    St. Louis Urban Tree Canopy Assessment Forest ReLeaf of Missouri Donna Coble, Executive Director Mike Walsh, Forestry Programs Manager April 2012 Photo by John Martin,Photo by courtesy of Missouri Botanical Garden ABSTRACT: Our urban forests are in decline. Among a city’s most basic and critical assets are its trees. Trees clean and cool the air, capture and sequester carbon, reduce energy costs, help reduce storm water runoff, minimize erosion, improve water quality, provide habitat for native wildlife, increase home values, beautify our neighborhoods, and enrich our lives. Across the U.S., recent studies have documented significant tree cover decline in urban areas. In 2010, Forest ReLeaf of Missouri (FRM), with funding from Missouri Department of Conservation, and in collaboration with the City of St. Louis, St. Louis County and Metropolitan Sewer District, conducted an Urban Tree Canopy (UTC) Assessment to map tree cover using satellite imagery and GIS technology. For the area studied, UTC was recorded at 26%, significantly lower than the 40% American Forests recommends. The assessment also calculated the ecosystem-services value of the study’s trees at more than $70 million and identified capacity to increase UTC by 10 percent. While the 2010 assessment serves as a critical local benchmark of existing UTC and the associated benefits, it covered only the city and portions of St. Louis County. To develop strategic, targeted tree planting and maintenance plans, a more comprehensive assessment of the entire St. Louis region is needed. Notably, once a UTC baseline for the region is established, the East-West Council of Governments can then incorporate this metric into a new Regional Plan for Sustainable Development.

We're proud to be part of Route 66, and nowhere is that more apparent than at the Route 66 Museum and Research Center, inside the Lebanon-Laclede County Library. The museum features authentic recreations of a 1950s diner and gas station; it also has antique cars, photos, memorabilia, original maps, books, magazines, videos, and more. Get a quick overview of the highway's heritage, or explore more in-depth all 3,500-square-feet. The museum is located at 915 S. Jefferson Avenue, and admission is free.
