The Scottrade Center, a contemporary building of glass and steel in the downtown area, is the home of St. Louis Blues NHL hockey team, the St. Louis Ambush indoor soccer club and the Saint Louis University Billikens basketball. The facility hosts over 200 entertainment and professional sports events every year. Triangle Park, across from the Scottrade Center, features dramatic sculptured steel pieces standing at the top of the tree-lined stairs leading from the MetroLink station. Saint Louis was established as a trading post on the west banks of the Mississippi River in 1764 by a French fur trapper named Pierre LaClede. Business was good from the beginning. Soon the village became the center of commerce with furs as the main source of exchange for goods. Today, elements of Old Saint Louis remain as Laclede's Landing a nine - block industrial area that once housed companies producing coffee, leather goods, mattresses, tobacco, whiskey, candy and machinery for the barges. The historic area is located north of the Gateway Arch. At night, horse drawn carriages and live music add to the downtown atmosphere. Nearby, sightseeing excursions and gaming boats offer additional choices for entertainment. Directions: Scottrade Center, located at 1402 Clark Avenue, is north of I-64 and just four blocks east of Union Station.
