From West Newsmagazine: Way back on Sept. 17, 2019, the Creve Coeur Government Center hosted an open house to unveil details and artist renderings of the 39 North project.
Roughly four years later, Olia Village started to ease into the spotlight, and now the development is set to show some major life.
At the Sept. 24 Creve Coeur Council meeting, a resolution approving the site development plan for Lot 1 of Olia Village was passed unanimously. It calls for the construction of a multi-tenant retail building, a structured parking garage and a surface parking lot. Not only that, but it will also house a larger, new version of the existing Schnucks grocery store. All is part of the Olia Village Mixed-Use Development District.
“It has been nearly three years exactly to the date when the property went from Bayer to this development group, and Olia Village came alive,” said Matt Pfund, project architect with Jack Matthews Development.
Pfund said the major difference from the original concept is that the garage became a little bit smaller underneath one of the buildings.
Gray Design Group Architect Brian Paul gave a few more details with slides of various elements and elevations for this 7.54-acre lot, calling building materials upscale, sophisticated and architecturally aesthetic. He also mentioned plantings and fencing on both sides of the property with the new Schnucks building on the right side and retail building on the left.
