On January 11, 2007, an SUV crashed into the east tower of the arch. The impact tore out about a third of the first-story wall of the east tower and caused the tower to shift partially off its foundation. There was also damage at the crosspiece where it connected to the east tower. At first it was unclear who was responsible for paying for repairs to the arch, and it was feared that it would be demolished. Eventually, the owner of the adjacent apartment complex came forward to cover the balance required to restore the arch after the $25,000 covered by the driver's insurance. | Date: 2007 | Source: Euclid Beach Park NowDownload Original File
