Getting to Downtown St. Louis from Lambert Airport:
Taxis are readily available at the
airport, outside of both the main and east terminals. The trip to downtown St.
Louis takes approximately 20-30 minutes and costs approximately $35.
MetroLink, St. Louis light-rail system, connects the
main and east terminals of Lambert-St. Louis International Airport to the
downtown area. The total travel time from the airport is approximately 30
minutes, and the train runs every 10 to 30 minutes, depending upon the time of
day. Call 314-231-2345 for detailed schedule information and current ticket
prices, or visit www.metrostlouis.org. If you take the train, disembark at the
Convention Center Station, located on the corner of Washington Avenue and Sixth
Street. Walk one block south on Sixth Street to Locust Street. Turn left (east), and continue one block to Broadway. The
Bank is located at the intersection of Broadway and Locust. The total distance
is .2 miles. (Because of the distance from the station to the Bank, this option
is not recommended for people with several suitcases, heavy luggage or physical
limitations. )
