As the dense forests of the East gave way to the Tall Grass Prairie, pioneers were able to traverse, homestead, and cultivate the land. Thus St. Louis' distinction as the "Gateway to the West." Today, the Tall Grass Prairie, its natural resources and native animals are endangered. This installation sparkles and glistens, like an abstract sea of Missouri Tall Grass. |
