Some Ballpark Village progress photos. One Cardinal Way photos will be cross-posted to the BPV2 thread.

The below photos are from Friday.

The skyline photo is from yesterday. You can see a part of the Pennant Building peeking out from the right Deloitte Building and a sliver of One Cardinal Way peeking over the Busch garage and between the Millenium Hotel and Deloitte. You may have to click on the picture to zoom in.

Some photos from today.

One Cardinal Way: Floor 11 of 29

7th Street Retail Walk

Live by Loews and Pennant Building (Floor 8 of 8 and Floor 11 of 11)

View from Kiener Plaza Garage West. The buildings are visible from ground level at Kiner Plaza but I didn't take one. It's nice to see this part of Downtown fill in. Hopefully, future phases keep up the progress.

The Residences at Boland Place is currently under construction near Interstate 64 and Hanley Road at the corner of Dale Avenue and Boland Place in the inner-ring suburb of Richmond Heights.

Richmond Heights is where the St. Louis Galleria is located.

The luxury mixed-use development will house 187 apartment units with balconies. They will take up five stories of the building, above retail space on the sub-level.

The retail space will occupy approximately 3,300 square feet of the 220,000-square-foot total construction.

Those Ballpark Village photos look great. They need to start plotting out Phase III.

Plus, do something with Mike Shannon's building. Tear down the dinky building then a build hotel/residential tower.

Market St. deserves better.

Re: The Residences at Boland Place

Those two renderings seem to show a different design with the first being infinitely better sans those terribly hokey faux pediments shown in the second.

The problem with Mike Shannon's property is that it is a land lease. The lease expires in 40-45 years and the main owner is the owner of the Hilton at the Ballpark. Unless a deal is reached to subdivide the land, I don't think it is going anywhere any time. In the meantime, Paric is using it for their construction offices for BPV2 and whoever the contractor is for BPV3 (2hich is in planning) may also use it.

Anyway, here are some project update photos from today...

4101 Manchester: 2 Drills have arrived.

Element Hotel on Forest Park Avenue: Steel is going up

Aloft Hotel in Cortex: Steel substructure completed. Wood framing to begin for upper floors.

Grand Flats: Will open by the end of the month (April)

Jefferson and Chouteau's design revealed...

Chouteau Avenue Partners released a series of watercolored renderings of their massive, $160 Million development known as "Lafayette Square North". Site prep also started today with concrete on the former Praxair site being jackhammered by an excavator. Come June, official construction will start on the district. The development will include two parking garages, public parks, 200,000SF of office space, an undisclosed amount of retail space, over 400 apartments, entertainment space, 14 townhomes and a potential hotel. HOK principal Bill Odell is the brainchild behind this. HOK is also acting as the architecture firm. More detailed renderings should be released around the official groundbreaking in June.

The project was originally unveiled in March 2018 as a series of massing diagrams presented to the Lafayette Square neighborhood.

That's actually a pretty cool design.

soulard&como · #**1955** Posted **Apr 26, 2019, 2:16 PM**

^ I agree. Very reminiscent of some English Premier league stadiums - low slung and hopefully very loud. I've heard some complaints that it's not super modern and spherical like almost all the new MLS stadiums, but IMO this design will hold up to the test of time.

Arch City · #**1956** Posted **Apr 27, 2019, 12:55 AM**

I know Lafayette Square has a strict design code, but it sure would be nice to have a more sleek design of this massive project, which is sitting on a major thoroughfare. Yeah....it'll be new, but sleek it up just a bit.

Arch City · #**1957** Posted **Apr 27, 2019, 12:57 AM**

Really shaping up nicely already. I like the garage panels/screen. Classy.

I was in downtown LA last year and development wise STL’s downtown may not be on par with LA, but activity wise and energy, I felt very similar vibes, plus STL has way less homeless people squatting around. You guys should be really proud of your city. Barring a recession I’d give it 5 more years and downtown really is gonna be a place to be.

Arch City · #**1959** Posted **May 1, 2019, 2:52 PM**

A former bay car wash is now replaced with 3172 Morganford (MoFo) which recently opened in Tower Grove South in St. Louis City. Morganford Rd. is long thoroughfare that stretches from the botanical jewel known as Tower Grove Park/Missouri Botanical Garden area into south St. Louis County.

This building has 26 fully leased units. 100%.

The area is up-and-coming. Great area for garden geeks.
