Federal Center and Riverview (Columbia: military, bus, buildings)

[Hazel W]

I am looking at a bus schedule and see two spots on their map that I'd like to know about. What is the Federal Center? Just a government building? Or more than that? Then, the end of the line is Riverview. Is that a North St Louis community? Or, is it actually what the name says: down by the River?

Thank you.

Federal Center is an enormous complex of federal buildings, mostly military, and private industrial buildings.
Riverview is both a city in North County that is near, but not adjacent to, the Mississippi River, and a major road (Riverview Blvd) that runs through North County from the Columbia Bottoms to intersection of Kingshighway and I-70. Ironically, it does not run through the city of Riverview, but is on the east border of Riverview between that city and the Mississippi River.

All right. Thanks. I was curious, as always.
