St. Louis region


9/30

Architectural Quality

Structures Architectural Merit & Uniqueness The overall style, era and building type are not

unique for St. Louis

The original architect was not a significant

figure in the field

No one pushed for this to be on the National

Register until a developer became involved

(added in 2009) National Register application was not based on

architectural significance


10/30


Materials, Ornamentation & Craftsmanship No demonstration of the creative use of

materials

Building masonry is very common

running band pattern throughout

Very little differentiating ornamentation

Not a single mention of the Pevely complex

in any publication on the architecturalhistory of St. Louis


11/30


Contribution to Streetscape There exists no discernible

urban or consistent

streetscape on Grand or

Chouteau


12/30


Contribution to Neighborhood There is no discernible

neighborhood within which the

property contributes


13/30

Condition

Building does not meet seismic codes(essential for health care facilities during

times of disaster)

Entrances and stairwells are not ADA

compliant

No working elevators

Limited access points for patients


14/30

Neighborhood Effect, Reuse Potential

Overview Reuse of the corner building for a modern health care facility is not

possible five key reasons:

SITE ISSUES

1. Limited expandability

2. Limited accessibility

BUILDING ISSUES

1. Seismic issues2. Column spacing and floor plate size

3. State-of-the-art image

19/30


Form Follows Function

Ideal planning bay Medical home collaborative care model


20/30


Function Follows Form

Floor plates small and inefficient

Column space at incorrect and small spacing

Exterior wall prohibits effective expansion

Virtually impossible to accommodate modern

linear accelerator, MRI, and surgical suite in the

existing footprint


21/30

Neighborhood Effect, Reuse PotentialState-of-the-Art Image


22/30

Economic Hardship

Competitive Disadvantage Virtually every major health care organization in the county has

made major building investments in health care facilities

We and our partners compete for patients, doctors and medical

school students

The long-term competitiveness of this campus, in the heart of the

City of St. Louis, is being challenged


23/30

Urban Design

There is no urban context remaining

The strongest context is the SLU Medical Center Campus

Southwest View Southeast View

Proposed Subsequent Construction

care campus

of St. Louis


25/30

Proposed Subsequent Construction

Estimated project cost: $73 million - $80 million Estimated project start date: 8/17/12

Heritage

Maintain the smoke stack as a symbol of the history of the Pevelycompany on the site

Dedicate a Pevely Museum on the main complex lobby chronicling

the importance of the Pevely company to our communitys heritage.


30/30

Conclusion

Our commitment is to continue to be an activepartner in making St. Louis a great city, both its

institutions and its heritage

We envision SLU as a state-of-the-art academic

medical center campus, with this Ambulatory Care

Center as the next critical component in its

evolution

To remain competitive for patients, physicians, andstudents, we must be allowed to build an

uncompromised state-of-the-art facility
