ABOUTST. LOUIS: GEOGRAPHY LOCATION The City of St. Louis is located on 61 square miles just south of the "Meeting of the Rivers," where the Missouri and Illinois Rivers join the Mississippi River. The City is at the center of a 12 county, 7,000 square mile metropolitan area that includes approximately 2.5 million people. The area is a relatively short distance by airplane, automobile or train from such other cities as Kansas City (250 miles), Chicago (300 miles) Indianapolis (250 miles) and Memphis (300 miles). PHYSIOGRAPHY GEOLOGY DEVELOPMENT PATTERNS The City of St. Louis is 100% urbanized. However, as a result of abandonment, dereliction and contamination of properties, there are many opportunities for redevelopment of small sites within the city limits. More challenging is combining small sites some publicly-owned by the city's Land Reutilization Authority (LRA) or other agencies, and some privately owned to create substantially sized sites for new residential and industrial development. Office Space: Retail: Traditionally, downtown St. Louis was the premier retail center of the metropolitan area. Although that role has declined, downtown retains a substantial selection of unique shops, as well as two department stores (Dillard's and Famous-Barr) and two enclosed shopping malls (Union Station and St. Louis Centre). Outside downtown, City retail generally consists of corner stores and strip development along major arteries. Significant retail strips include the Central West End shopping and restaurant district along Euclid Avenue, the Grand South Grand area just south of Tower Grove Park, and Cherokee Street with its Hispanic businesses west of Jefferson Ave. and "Antique Row" east of Jefferson Ave. A few major auto-oriented shopping centers are located in the City. They include the Hampton Village Shopping Center at Hampton and Chippewa, Lindell Marketplace at Lindell and Sarah, and City Plaza at Union and Natural Bridge.

Check out: X12: Paris Scope Standard #12: The processes, patterns, and functions of human settlement Complete Index Life on the Edge: Cities on the Fringe Sprawl: The National and Local Situation Complete Index Life on the Edge: Cities on the Fringe Overview: This lesson focuses on contemporary centers of transportation and trade known as "edge cities." During the freeway era the automobile has pushed the extreme of metropolitan development to fringe locations many miles (or kilometers) from older downtown areas. The suburban city has become increasingly independent of the downtown city. By the end of the twelfth grade, students should be able to evaluate the physical and human impacts of emerging urban forms in the present-day world. Connections to the Curriculum: Geography, economics Connections to the National Geography Standards: Standard 12: "The processes, patterns, and functions of human settlement" Time: Two hours Materials Required: Computer with Internet access Road maps of metropolitan areas Objectives: Students will understand the evolving patterns and impacts of present-day urban areas;

INDUSTRY AGRICULTURE EDUCATION For cities, population growth leads to more tax income By MIKE MONSON News-Gazette Staff Writer The population of Champaign and Urbana has slowly but steadily risen over the last three decades, with Champaign seeing more rapid growth. And continuing that growth is of more than passing interest to city officials - as some key income sources for city government are based on population. Champaign had 56,837 residents in 1970, 58,133 in 1980 and 63,502 residents in the 1990 census. In comparison, Urbana saw its population at 33,976 residents in 1970, 35,978 residents in 1980 and 36,344 residents in 1990. Those estimates are at odds with census projections, which estimate that Champaign had 64,280 residents in 1998 and Urbana had 34,872 residents. The 2000 census is set to begin this spring.
