Percy Jackson and the Olympians "The Lightning Thief" is a popular book by Rick Riordan. The Wiki page for Percy Jackson notes why the Gateway Arch is featured so prominently in the series saying:

While on their quest, Annabeth insists upon stopping at the Gateway Arch, because of the architecture. The group visits the underground museum, where Grover starts to feel that something is wrong. After there is no room in one of the elevators back down, Percy stays behind to take the next one.

The Gateway Arch decided to have some fun with Percy Jackson and shared a fun video showing what you can and can't do on a quest at the iconic landmark.
