Getting there:

By Public Transit: Traveling to the GSC from Lambert Airport is easy: simply take the MetroLink from the airport to the Central West End station for $3.50 one-way, and then follow this local street map. (You may want to print this for your reference.)

Take the MetroLink from the airport (it's the final stop on the line; you need not worry about which train, etc.). Fare is $3.50. Tickets are purchased from the automated vending machines on the platform. If you've purchased a one-way ticket, the machine can sell you a pre-validated ticket. Otherwise, you must validate your two-way ticket in one of the time validator machines. MetroLink fare (in general) is now $2.00 and metroLink fare from the airport is $3.50.

Get off the train at the Central West End station. Walk up the stairs from the platform and you end on the east side of Euclid. Turn right and walk north on Euclid. Turn right at the first street, which is Children's Place. Follow Children's Place to Taylor, and turn left. Follow Taylor to Parkview/Duncan. Turn right onto Duncan and walk towards Newstead. Before you get to Newstead, you'll see a relatively new six-story black brick building on the left. The front entrance is on the Newstead side of the building. Take the elevator to the fourth floor; the GSC main office just to the left of the elevators.

Call 286-1800 if you get lost.

By Car

From the airport, take I70 east to I170 south. Take I170 south to I64/40 east. Take I64/40 east until you reach Kingshighway North. Take Kingshighway north to Forest Park Ave. Go east on Forest Park Ave. The center will be 3 blocks from Kingshighway on your right.
