This image is updated every few minutes! You can check out what's going on in downtown St. Louis anytime...day or night, rain or shine. St. Louis is the world headquarters for Sears Portrait Studio.

What you're seeing is downtown St. Louis, looking east. That's Keiner Plaza and the old Courthouse in the foreground. The old Courthouse has been here since the early 1800's. Behind the Courthouse is the 630 foot high Gateway arch. Come back soon and see what's happening in St. Louis.

Get your crayons out and visit our Story Creation section with a new ColorMe Story - A Trip to The Arch.
