McCarthy Building Companies has secured in place one of the last steel beams to complete the framing of Forsyth Pointe, a nearly 1-million-square-foot mixed-use development occupying an entire square city block in the central business district of Clayton, Missouri, the county seat of St. Louis County.
The development by US Capital Development features two steel-framed, all-glass Class-A office towers with street-level retail space offering views of the adjacent 30-acre Shaw Park.
Highlights include Commerce Bank Tower, a 10-story, 265,000-square-foot high-rise at the intersection of Forsyth Boulevard and Meramec Avenue, as well as an eight-story, 210,000-square-foot west tower at the intersection of Forsyth Boulevard and Brentwood Boulevard.
In addition, the development includes more than 20,000 square feet of street-level retail space and a seven-level (1,250 car) parking structure connecting both towers and extending 2.5 levels underground.
Designed to achieve LEED Silver certification, a signature amenity will be the 45,000-square-foot (over 1-acre) “green roof” open-air garden terrace built over the parking structure that will be available for tenants to enjoy. Additional amenities include plans for a 10,000-square-foot fitness center and ground-floor arts and entertainment venue.
