Wayfinding Survey
Cortex has engaged with the architectural firm, Arcturis, to help us explore our wayfinding needs for the District, and we’d like your help! We’d like to learn about your perceptions of the directional and wayfinding needs in the District.
Those who are able to complete this very BRIEF SURVEY before September 15 will be entered into a chance to win a $100 Visa gift card. Any feedback from District Members will be helpful in assessing needs and priorities as we move forward with this project.
Thank you for your time and contribution as we continue to work to make the District more welcoming and accessible to the St. Louis region.
