American Century building?

Post by eliphar17 »

Is American Century building a third tower at their Plaza HQ? I seem to remember hearing about this, but there isn't anything about it in the projects section of this site. Are there any renderings out there, if one is being built?

American Century will move 145 jobs to KC

American Century Cos. Inc. will move about 145 jobs from its Littleton,
Colo., operations to Kansas City, a company spokesman confirmed on
Friday.

The mutual fund company is consolidating the Littleton account
processing and call center operations in Kansas City, a process that
will occur in the next 18 months, American Century spokesman Chris Doyle
said.

About 145 of the 160 Littleton employees will be given the option of
relocating to Kansas City or receiving severance packages that Doyle
said would be scaled to each employee's time with the company. The
company's Littleton facility, which opened in 2001, will cease
operations in the spring of 2005.

"Our goal is to bring as many of those people as possible to KC," Doyle
said.

American Century officials haven't decided whether the jobs will be
relocated to the company's call center at 9300 Ward Parkway or another
Kansas City-area location. American Century has several locations and
about 900,000 square feet of office space in the Kansas City area.

Doyle said the company decided to move the operations after it found a
tenant for the 160,000-square-foot leased facility in Littleton. In
addition to the account processing and customer service center in
Colorado, American Century has investment management operations in
Mountain View, Calif., and New York City. The company has no plans to
consolidate those operations into Kansas City, Doyle said.

Based in Kansas City, American Century manages about $82 billion in
assets through separate accounts, commingled trusts, sub-advisory
accounts and mutual funds. The company has 1,900 employees, 1,500 of
them in the Kansas City area.

The company ranks No. 40 on The Business Journal's list of area public
companies.
There is no fifth destination.
