 The top deck, or "lido deck," was the only place on the "Admiral" available for completely open-air lounging.With unobstructed views, this was a vantage point for the St. Louis Arch, the top-terraced homes on the Chouteau's Bluff, the Eads Bridge, the Martin Luther King Bridge and the Jefferson Barracks Bridge.Several coin-operated telescopes facilitated close-up views.
