ST. LOUIS – St. Louis-based Gateway Arch Park Foundation announced that it chose The Cordish Companies to reconstruct its Millennium Hotel property mid-February. 

Located at 200 S. 4th St. adjacent to the noteworthy St. Louis Gateway Arch, the Millennium Hotel’s redevelopment project aims to become an exciting destination for locals. 

“We are delivering on our promise to take swift action to bring vibrancy once again to this critical downtown location,” said Ryan McClure, executive director of Gateway Arch Park Foundation. “By selecting a developer before closing on this property, we are continuing momentum with purpose and dedication.”

Cordish’s project also looks to strengthen notable connections around the St. Louis area, including the Gateway Arch, Busch Stadium, Ballpark Village and the Mississippi River.

The company’s project for the Millennium Hotel amounts to almost $670 million, including 1.3 million square feet of residential, office, commercial and cultural places. 

Greater St. Louis Interim CEO Dustin Allison expressed in the news release about how this project can establish a vibrant spot in downtown St. Louis.

“The Cordish Companies is honored to have been selected by the Gateway Arch Park Foundation for this transformative project in downtown St. Louis,” said Blake Cordish, principal for Cordish Companies. “This development is a once-in-a-generation moment to reimagine and continue to reinvigorate downtown’s urban core. By linking new and existing assets to thriving corridors, this project will act as a catalyst for further revitalization, bringing more residents and visitors, attracting new businesses, and driving long-term growth and vitality for St. Louis and the region.”

Gateway Arch Park Foundation remains under contract to purchase the Millennium Hotel.
