The second phase of Ballpark Village next to Busch Stadium in downtown St. Louis will feature a 29-story luxury apartment building, along with office, retail, restaurants and entertainment space.
The St. Louis Cardinals announced the $220 project Tuesday. Construction is expected to start late next year and be completed in 2019.
The team is asking the city to amend its current development agreement to add a sales tax within Ballpark Village, and to issue bonds for the revenue generated by the project. The first phase of Ballpark Village opened in 2014 and includes restaurants, bars and the Cardinals Hall of Fame.
