The St. Louis Arena – The country’s second largest indoor entertainment venue when it opened in 1929 by architect Gustel R. Kiewitt – Kiewit’s design called for a lamella roof, devised in 1908, supported by 20 cantilever steel trusses, eliminating the need for view-obscuring internal support pillars
