Homebase Partners, of Bozeman Montana, is planning to demolish the old Clayton Police HQ building at 227 South Central Avenue, in Clayton Missouri, for a 12 floors AC Hotel. This hotel will be the first new hotel in Downtown Clayton in over 20 years when it opens in Late 2020. Currently, the developer has a desire to break ground in the Spring of 2019 with the original plans presented in February 2018. This particular AC Hotel will be the third AC Brand in the region (behind Central West End [Proposed] and Downtown [Proposed] and will be the second property in St. Louis developed by Homebase (other is Central West End AC Hotel [Proposed]).

This particular hotel will be 196 rooms in size and will include a rooftop bar for the general public. There will be no street level retail (despite it being a block North of the MetroLink station). The hotel is right up against the massive Clayton Metro garage but the design takes that into consideration by not giving any hotel rooms that view. The Hotel is on the same block as the recently completed 212 South Meramec tower. The block is also the subject of a potential overhaul with new high rises and mid rises. The cost of the hotel is $45 million.

This isn't a new project but just an update to the project that was unveiled earlier this year.

Hyde Park Is Ready for Its Comeback

I found these new renderings on Ballpark Village's redesigned website. One is of the Live Hotel and Pennant Building with a significantly redesigned fitness/market building with a rock wall outside and funky glass. The Rawlings Logo has also made a return. The fitness/market building has been through many redesigns recently so I would expect it to change again soon as it hasn't began yet.



Then there is this one. It is under the office building page and shows the Pennant Building's lobby looking North. The first leak of Phase 3 is included as the building outside the windows is currently not there or proposed.


Then there is a story I wrote about other tenants and these changes: https://www.buildingstlnews.com/the-...obby-rendering

This is the fourth development planned or under construction in St. Louis by Indianapolis based Pearl real Estate Funds (Pearl Companies). I like it a lot and it will do wonders to improve that area.

I'm loving it too! For St. Louis in particular, this cycle has changed us in a good way. While we still got a long way to go, it's clear that we won't be ignored much longer.

Hotel at Clayton and Brentwood Moving Forward

Prior to the Great Recession, Equis Hospitality had plans to develop a second hotel and parking garage next door to the University Club Tower in Richmond Heights and East of the Galleria. After several design revisions, concepts and other things related to development, this project is now moving forward. Originally meant to be a Westin Hotel, this modestly sized building will form a decent sized street wall along Clayton from 170 to Brentwood Boulevard. The current plans call for a 10 Floor hotel, designed by S+P architects of Clayton, parking garage and retail space at the base of the hotel.

Apparently a parking agreement has finally been reached and this one is moving forward at NE corner of Forsyth and Brentwood in downtown Clayton.
