From St. Louis Post-Dispatch: The Jesuits’ Central Southern Province records archive is under construction near St. Louis University and should be ready for occupancy by the end of the year.

After buying the site in 2015, Province officials said they would remodel the former Jarold Manufacturing plant on the property at 3920 West Pine Boulevard.

That changed after the Jesuits determined a new building would better suit their needs. As a result, they are building a two-story building to replace the factory built in about 1920 for a machinery company and sold to Jarold in 1976.

Fox Architects of St. Louis is the archive designer. BSI Constructors is the builder.
