Gateway Arch & Jazz Nights: City Rhythm with Lehmann House
There’s something magical about watching the sun set over the Mississippi, and the Gateway Arch offers the ultimate backdrop. Start your evening at the Arch grounds, where shaded benches invite you to pause and watch riverboats glide by. As dusk falls, the sky transforms, and the Arch begins to glow, marking a moment of quiet grandeur in the heart of St. Louis.
When the magic hits its stride, wander into Laclede’s Landing or the nearby riverfront for jazz evenings or summer concerts. The gentle sound of saxophones drifting across the water feels perfectly suited to an open-air summer night. Earlier in the day, explore the park plaza, perhaps taking the tram up to the top of the Arch for panoramic city views—seeing the sun glinting off the Mississippi is a memory you’ll carry long after.
After the show, return to Lehmann House B&B in Lafayette Square’s historic district. You’ll discover that the quiet elegance of this 1893 mansion is the perfect contrast to the vibrant city rhythm. Relax in a plush room or sip a nightcap in the parlor. One of the best parts is knowing you’re just minutes from the heart of St. Louis, yet enveloped in peace and old-world charm.
Sleepless nights are rare here—the soft hush of the neighborhood blends with your memories of the Arch’s glow, settling you into a restful sleep. And in the morning, a thoughtful breakfast awaits before choosing your next adventure.
