100 Above the Park, according to the website, is only 25% leased (230 apartments remain of the 305 total in the building). Slow, but expected considering it is the most expensive building in the City of St. Louis and most expensive rental building in the Metro area.

Despite this, a 205-unit luxury apartment project is going up about 3.5 blocks away - 4545 Laclede by KDG. The crane went up over the weekend.


In addition to 4545 Laclede and 100 Above the Park, the area around the Euclid corridor has seen 3 new construction projects in the past few years. All are seen on the left side of this image (Citizen Park, the Orion, and the Euclid). An AC Hotel is also under construction near the Chase Park Plaza (crane seen in the second photo. Current status in third photo). So quite a bit going on around the Euclid corridor.




It is becoming believed by many in my circle, and outside of my circle, that Mac Properties will team up with Sam Koplar to develop a signature tower on the parking lot at Kingshighway and Lindell. Of course, that is dependent on how leasing goes at 100 Above the Park as well as 4545 Laclede (as both projects equate to approximately 510 luxury apartments).

100 helped fill in some of the Central West End. From this angle, the numerous parking lots are hidden.



But from this angle, several parking lots come into view. One had a plan last year, but the project was canceled for no specified reason.


Still though, 100 was and is a nice addition to the neighborhood.
