ST. LOUIS | BJC Towers | 3 X 12-Floors

At least $2.5-billion in construction is planned (or is under construction) in the BJC/Washington University Medical Center/Cortex Corridor over the next five years.

(See information below)












View from Washington University's Danforth (Main) Campus. The Central West End skyline will be changing.

BJC North 12-story tower under construction - close to topping out.


Looking South


Looking over Forest Park towards Clayton

Below is the second 12-story tower under construction. The third 12-story building hasn't broken ground yet.

A peak to see how two of the three new buildings will impact the Washington University/BJC Medical Center skyline.

Neither building has officially topped out, but are close.

A cool fly-over, fly-through and street-level animation video - with concentration primarily on the two towers now under construction.

Construction hasn't started on the third tower yet.

Not sure about your observations, but do you mean with towers?

The CWE and the WUMC are actually pretty dense.
