I rarely comment on things but the bridge you walked across was used in John Carpenter's Escape from New York as the 69th Street Bridge towards the end of the movie! Most of the movie was actually filmed in Saint Louis! Love your videos Jacob! My wife and I hope to meet you somewhere one day!
The abandoned dock area was the old casino on The Admiral. Also go anywhere in 'The Hill' area for better Toasted Ravioli (T-ravs for short). Outside that one area, Syberg's is a local restaurant with several locations with some of the best T-ravs.
The old riverfront had a Robert e Lee riverboat. A real paddle wheel. It did excursions, evening dinner shows and weddings. Along with the admiral we had a very vibrant waterfront back then. Welcome to my home town.
it makes me so sad to see what Lacledes landing has become. As a younger man, I spent many a weekend going from bar to bar and restaurant to restaurant. As well as doing the cruises and the good old VP Fair on the arch grounds.
Thanks Jacob for this awesome adventure. I've been lucky enough to not have to evoke the playlist,as I haven't missed a day yet. I do hope you are having as much fun as you make it look. Thanks again Mr Carpetbagger for a journey well worth taking.
St. Louis used to have a beautiful riverfront. I remember visiting the McDonald’s and Burger King boats when I was little and the Admiral was always a neat sight, too. It’s sad that they’ve really let it go like this 😢
Jacob. You’ve made this adventure, so much fun, and I appreciate you doing this. I didn’t even know there was a highway for the Mississippi river following all the way along down and you made it really exciting with your stops of museums and everything else. Very educational and real fun. Thank you for sharing. It is really appreciated. You just take care and I’m enjoying this route with you on your journey.🫶🏻🤠
21:10 I went up the arch on Friday, May 17th and we had the projections. So, it seems like they just had an issue with them on Tuesday. Also, the Cardinals game was indeed suspended due to rain and resumed on Wednesday! -Andrew
First time commenting thanks for all your great videos in the hard times never know what ppl go through so just need a escape, something like that .. stay safe keep traveling
I grew up in Saint Louis. So glad you finally saw the sights!(some of them)! Good raviolli is the hill, even frozen ones from the local store are good, good raviolli is up to personal tastes of mixture. Many are different, but it is delicious all the same! Try as many as you can, you be the judge!❤
Welcome to St. Louis!! As a native I can tell you that true toasted ravioli (or t-ravs) are breaded then deep fried. The sauce can make all the difference also. I agree with the folks who say go to The Hill where you'll find wonderful Italian restaurants and some of the best t-ravs in the city. There is a bbq place in downtown (Salt & Smoke across from Busch Stadium) that makes brisket t-ravs which are so good!
Jacob. You were meant to do this!!! I mean traveling and showing the world❤ you are so good at what you do!! I always enjoy your videos. And you and Jen are good together too😊😊😊
The abandoned river front pavilion you seen was where the Admiral (built 1907) used to sit. As a kid it was a cruise ship that had music, dinner and live music. Then it left for the south for a while then made its way back to St. Louis as a Casino. Then it became too old for repairs and it was destroyed.
This was a fun video. I went to St. Louis with my family when I was younger. I didn't know about the river cruise. I'd like to go back and do that someday. I was surprised to see the top of the arch divided into two sections. When I was there years ago, you could go up and down either side and walk all the way across the top.
I suspect it’s an egress issue. A barrier at the top allows them to control the maximum number of occupants that can be on each side of the viewing area at any given time. This would prevent a scenario where, in an emergency everyone might try running to the stairs on one side of the structure, potentially exceeding the number of people the stair can accommodate.
With Jenn would be amazing too.... I doubt I will ever get to do Route 66 or the Great River trail either. .. my hubby and I are getting up there in ages and our bodies are falling apart now...we loved to drive places like Pugeon Forge and Florida plus all over our home state of Michigan including upper Peninsula which looks just like Kentucky...gorgeous..and a very long way up to the top too ...hoping we can be back on the rod this summer so we can visit my grandparents and dad's grave up near Mackinac City ..❤but would love to see Jenn do Route 66 with Jacob. He would love to show her all the things he has seen before
@@denisedarnell1641 I'm sorry to hear about your and your hubby's health, Denise. I really hope you get to experience Route 66 by yourself as well. It's an amazing adventure!
Not sure if youll see this but that Monument to Robert E Lee is actually the same Lee from the Civil War. He was an Engineer before he was in the military
it the same Robert E Lee he was part of what is now known as the army engineer corps it is a monument to his service as a united states army engineer. because the river was starting to w ash the western bank or the river giving the harbor trouble and threaten parts of the city at the time.
The abandoned pavilion at 28:50 used to be the entrance of the "Admiral" boat which hosted the President Casino inside. It was a floating casino and hotel. Sadly the boat was completely scrapped and the whole area is now abandoned.
Mississippi Nights, one of the best music venues ever, used to be on the landing. Until the casino came in and took over and made it a parking lot. Look up the history on it if you aren’t familiar. 😢
The abandoned pavilion where the homeless were living, formerly was the entrance to The President’s Casino on the Admiral riverboat. It closed years ago. It couldn’t compete with the much larger casino next door.
By what I remember the Casino on the Admiral is the same one that is now online, just changed owners and name over time. When casinos were legalized in MO they had to be on the River. They later changed that law requiring it to be on a river so they moved it from the Admiral to where it is today.
There are Riverboat cruises overnight you can take down the Mississippi River. They are not cheap, but they are similar to cruise ships, except smaller. They cost over $1,000 to book a room on the riverboat.
Yes, they are along with the control room and living space for the operator. Now a days their operation is controlled remotely and very rarely does city water let anyone inside.
Lacledes Landing has been changing a lot over the last several years. It used to be a popular nighlife spot and place to go before Rams games. Im interested to see what it will be like in the next couple years.
When I went to YMCA summer camp in the 70s we would go somewhere in St Louis every week. Every year we went on a riverboat ride on the Admiral riverboat. They also had a riverboat McDonald's for years down there. I'm in southeast Missouri now. Figured you'd be by here on this trip. Almost went to Lambert's today to see if you were there. Going back to work tomorrow. Safe travels.
I wondered about that because it didn't look anywhere near beefy enough to be driving the boat at the speed it was moving. Also, I don't think you need to be especially athletic to kayak/canoe/raft DOWN a river; if you want to go UPSTREAM that would be an entirely different story.
Bagger, you have christen this year as 'The year of the pressed penny. May I also suggest that this summer be declared as "The summer of the Riverboat"....
Did the same riverboat cruise and went to the top of the arch 2 years back. Was pretty cool but of course I was really there for the Cardinals games. :-)
Years ago I worked at a Friendly's restaurant and we had deep fried ravioli on the menu and it was one of my favorite things to eat 😋 A summer time trip on Route 66 sounds like a great idea to me 🌟 there is more to see then 🤩 I love how much joy You are getting from this adventure Jacob 💖 and that brings me joy as well ❣️ As always, Thank You for bringing Us along with You 🙏💝😻♾️
The Robert E Lee u featured on this video, the engineer that helped with the navigation of the Mississippi River is the same civil war general of the confederacy.
Kudos to your TH-cam Channel, Jacob! 👍👍👍👍 I know an individual who was in the high school marching bandand the school's marching band traveled to St. Louis and the band road up to the top of the arch.
Sad to see Lacledes Landing so abandon. Back in the 90”s it was awesome. But trash took over the great cities. Last time was at Lacledes, my car was broken into. The popo couldn’t care less. Never been back. It hasn’t changed.
I'm loving this adventure! I have family from Iowa but haven't been back in years. It's great to see the river . Vicksburg would be nice to see. Stay Safe
I lived in Cape for a while. Now living in Michigan. Still have family down there. Beautiful city. Miss being there. Haven't been back there in 5 years. The Port Cape has awesome ice cream.
St. Louis Ned’s a little cleanup still looks the same when I was there years ago, but the area at the arch is nicely done and kept up nicely. Good trip today camera still going great!
I remember when you 1st went up in the arch . Interesting paddle steamer ride . Sad that a lot of areas experinceing empty store fronts . Keep Safe❤Keep Well ❤
How has McDonalds not sponsored the Arch Cafe? lol Lots of changes since I was last there. The underground museum looks a lot more modern now. The elevators still have that Clockwork Orange look though lol. They certainly didn't used to divide the observation deck in half either. I wonder why they would do that?
The structure at 29:00 was originally the dock/entrance to the President Casino. It was a casino housed inside of a cruise-like ship. It looks like it closed around 2010 and has been abandoned ever since.
On your way to Memphis you should stop and eat in Sikeston Mo @ Lambert’s. Oh and Downtown Memphis will be kinda busy the have Memphis in May Festivities going on.
Quick correction, it was actually THE Robert E Lee who engineered the Mississippi to be closer to St Louis. Not a different one. He did that many years before he became the civil war general he is known for today.
Loved your St. Louis video!! I live near Alton Illinois, just across the river from St. Louis. Love your Arch coverage. Some of the best toasted ravioli is at Imo’s pizza and Ravanelli’s. Thanks for showing our city!! ❤
I believe it’s the same Robert E Lee that led the confederacy. Here’s an article. The Mississippi as the key to commerce Even if the Civil War never happened, and even if Robert E. Lee never became president of Washington and Lee University, we would still probably know him today. He changed American history not only as a general and university administrator, but as an engineer. His most celebrated engineering feat? He made the Mississippi River navigable. Let’s put that feat into perspective.
I visited St. Louis twice. On my second trip I stayed in a hotel downtown and got to visit the arch. Those capsules are not for people who feel clostrophic but is defiantly worth the ride up to see the views from the top. When I was there that Landing area was a lively commercial and entertainment area. The flue crisis most likely killed a lot of business there. I also believe there were two riverboat casinos in that area and that is what you most likely saw that looked abandoned and was their entrance area. 😂
Most baseball games go on around 7pm so you were there early or the st louis cardinals were away that day Even the it's the ending part of the arch it's really called the keystone even if it's medal and hollow , the shape really doesn't matter, cause a keystone is the central connector piece of a arch or doorway that fits both sides Yes PA is called the keystone state it was once shaped like a keystone, but it was also the beginning of the west and central part of the beginning of the westward way,
Indeed, a super creepy wax museum! We were pretty much the only visitors on a week day and almost were lost in the darkness and maze of the museum. I totally dug it! PS - I am a native Hoosier who transplanted to St. Louis in 1995. I have always lived in the city - Benton Park, Shaw, Lafayette Square, Compton Heights, and Lafayette Square again. I hope you have visited my neighborhood. Our park is the oldest west of the Mississippi and our entire neighborhood is an historic district.

That's awesome!
Didn't know that.
Ha! Beat me to it. Yes, St. Louis. The(filming) location of dystopian hellscape.
Unfortunately the Kerry sisters were murdered on the bridge by being forced to jump.
My neighbor was an extra in that movie and several classmates made their way out there during filming

Worked with a guy who was a chef there.
It was actually a barge , but beautiful ,
Saint LOUIS RIVER FRONT IS A GHOST TOWN , EXCEPT FOR LOOKING AT THE upside down horseshoe called the
ARCH
I do agree about going to the Hill to get toasted ravioli. Also another good place is imo's pizza which is a regional pizza chain.
Thanks Jacob for this awesome adventure. I've been lucky enough to not have to evoke the playlist,as I haven't missed a day yet. I do hope you are having as much fun as you make it look. Thanks again Mr Carpetbagger for a journey well worth taking.

Thanks for another adventure. I've been on that riverboat, but unfortunately, it was evening, so I really appreciated seeing the Arch during the day.
The Chain of Rocks Bridge is a filming location for the Movie Escape from New York (with Kurt Russell).
As a somewhat new viewer, I would love to see a Route 66 series whenever you can make it work. That would be awesome!
This series is amazing! We are long time fans. This series is so interesting and entertaining ! Bravo sir!

Best Toasted Ravioli in St Louis is at Mama”s On The Hill.
I agree with you! Gift shop ravioli isn’t gonna be the best! Hehehe
I recommend the t-ravs at Anthonino’s. I’m a bad St Louisan and generally can’t stand the stuff, but I will eat it at Anthonino’s.
Being in that pod by myself would totally freak me out !!!! 😮 don't think I could do it !!!!! Thanks Jacob ❤ enjoying this daily journey 😀
Morning Jacob thanks for sharing this St Louis area. That bridge 🌉 was interesting to see you walk it across. Take care my friend.🤓📸✌️
Yes a summer Route 66 tour please!

The toasted ravioli is actually just deep fried ravioli. It is delicious. I won't eat regular ravioli anymore. It's got to be toasted.

Whoa, I was hoping that you wouldn't get to St. Louis until Saturday. My mom and I will be there this weekend.
Welcome to The Lou, home of baseball’s greatest team the Cardinals. ⚾️ Carpet the Jaccobagger
In my life I've been there twice in the Arch. Once in the daytime, and once at night! Both were spectacular!
Sorry I didn’t see this sooner! I’m from St. Louis a used to work at the Arch. Always good to see the city from someone else’s perspective.

Mama's on the Hill for the best toasted ravioli ever!
That paddle wheel isn’t hooked up to a motor, it’s just Free willing. Them boats have regular props under them like a modern boat.
He needs to ride the Nanchez wherever it is on the Mississippi
I wondered about that because it didn't look anywhere near beefy enough to be driving the boat at the speed it was moving. Also, I don't think you need to be especially athletic to kayak/canoe/raft DOWN a river; if you want to go UPSTREAM that would be an entirely different story.
Wow the view up there looks awesome! 🤩
Probably old news, but Jacob, the new camera is looking super crisp! Really enjoyed what looks like wider shots?
Classic Carpetbagger. Back to basics. Glad you are having a good time!

You should try Fritz soda that comes from St. Louis chian Rock bridge is open to vehic once a year for route 66 fest
I'm loving this adventure! I have family from Iowa but haven't been back in years. It's great to see the river . Vicksburg would be nice to see. Stay Safe
I was born and raised in Madison Illinois. It's pretty run down now, but it was nice in the 60s and 70s when I lived there. ❤
You need to take the nanchez steam river boat I didn't know where it resides but might be a cool ride
Another awesome video, Jacob. I'm looking forward to the next. Take care my friend, and as always, safe travels .
Hey there is Cape girardeau Mo. And you could eat at famous Port Cape dinner
There smoked mushrooms with cheese are fantastic

Olive Garden has toasted ravioli, which is actually fried
Hey that abandoned thing is an old entrance to a casino. They used to only allow gambling on the water.
How has McDonalds not sponsored the Arch Cafe? lol
Lots of changes since I was last there. The underground museum looks a lot more modern now. The elevators still have that Clockwork Orange look though lol. They certainly didn't used to divide the observation deck in half either. I wonder why they would do that?
The structure at 29:00 was originally the dock/entrance to the President Casino. It was a casino housed inside of a cruise-like ship. It looks like it closed around 2010 and has been abandoned ever since.
Be careful, my friend got mugged at the arch! 😢
What a unique old place, I’d love it.
The Hill in St Louis has the best toasted raviolis!!!!!
On your way to Memphis you should stop and eat in Sikeston Mo @ Lambert’s. Oh and Downtown Memphis will be kinda busy the have Memphis in May Festivities going on.
You're a cool cat, CB! 😎💯🔥
We need a "Cruising with The Carpetbagger" series in the future. He would be like me going on a LOT of cruises. Have fun Jacob!
The Hill is a different area. Delicious food.
Thoroughly enjoyed the video - please be safe out there🌞🌻
I rode on the admiral when i was young I'm 66 next month the admiral was a beautiful boat
I loved this tour! Thank you for showing.
I think I like the gift shops the most. They all have about the same thing, just with different themes.
Quick correction, it was actually THE Robert E Lee who engineered the Mississippi to be closer to St Louis. Not a different one. He did that many years before he became the civil war general he is known for today.
Before he turned into a traitor.

Never heard of toasted ravioli before but I do like pizza rolls too. And pizza is the only food that I have no preference if it's hot or cold.
I like cold leftover chicken as well as cold pizza too
@@denisedarnell1641 The perfect box lunch(es)!
