BJC HealthCare and the Washington University School of Medicine plan to build an office building of 12 to 14 floors at their growing medical campus in the Central West End neighborhood.
The structure, under design by Christner Inc., will go up on the site of the Storz office building next to the Central West End MetroLink station, university officials said Wednesday. Demolition of the Storz building should take place this summer with the intent to open the new building in two years, officials said.
The building’s cost has yet to be determined, but it will provide about 40,000 square feet of space per floor on as many as 14 floors, said Melissa Hopkins, the medical school’s assistant vice chancellor and assistant dean of facilities operations.
