The Westin Kansas City at Crown Center
Live! By Loews-St. Louis
room, a 1.5-acre outdoor plaza will facilitate popular
outdoor sessions with an assist from local food
trucks and artfully jagged floor-to-ceiling glass walls
will reflect the flowing convergence of the Mississippi
and Missouri rivers beyond. Plus, improved
ionized air filtration will cycle air more often.
Because the project is being conducted in two
phases, with the first scheduled for completion in
2024, conventions can go on in the areas where
work is not being done.
" From the first steps in the front door, the building
simulates open arms to welcome 600,000 delegates
who come to St. Louis each year, " said Hall.
Notable Ribbon Cuttings
St. Louis has been steadily adding guest rooms
downtown and a total of 7,670 are already within a
mile of America's Center. A fun new upcycling came
earlier this year when the Art Deco Shell Building
was transformed into a dual-branded Home2
Suites and Tru by Hilton St. Louis Downtown.
Another noteworthy reuse came in the form of The
Last Hotel, a 142-room independent property that
opened in 2019 in a former shoe factory and took
its name from footwear forms.
Closer to recently expanded Ballpark Village,
Live! By Loews-St. Louis brought 216 guest
rooms and more than 10,000 sq. ft. of meeting
space in 2020 to St. Louis' " living room " . St. Louis
is still home to the only Four Seasons Hotel in state
and its 200 guest rooms boast incredible river views.
New during the pandemic at St. Louis Union
Station Hotel, Curio Collection by Hilton (567
guest rooms and more than 100,000 sq. ft. of meeting
space), St. Louis Aquarium at Union Station is
swimming with creative places to host a reception,
including Shark Canyon, a glass J-wall that puts
guests in the undertow of ferocious sea creatures,
and St. Louis Wheel, which spins them 200 feet up
in the air with views of a new MLS soccer stadium
opening to groups in September.
At remodeled landmark Gateway Arch, groups
can gather in The Museum at the Gateway Arch,
with rides on the sky-high tram for stunning city
views of the city as dessert.
" We are now talking to groups with large general
sessions that need the room afforded by one of the
largest ballrooms in the country with easy access
to The Dome at America's Center multipurpose
stadium, " said Hall.
Another big selling point on Hall's list: full return
of robust airlift at St. Louis Lambert International
Airport (SLT) and easy Metrolink train access to
downtown.
