Forsythe Centre

Forsythe Centre is a 14-story, 246,000-square-foot high-rise office building located on Forsythe Boulevard in downtown Clayton, Mo. The Forsythe Centre is Phase II of the original Jefferson Smurfit Centre office building and parking structure. The existing brick veneer parking structure received an additional seven levels vertically to accommodate the parking demands of the new development. While working on this structure and an adjacent office tower, Leonard Masonry simultaneously laid more than 1.1 million bricks and stone in less than 20 months.

The building’s exterior is traditional brick masonry with a projecting limestone cornice around the fourth floor and a coping at the roof. Limestone accent bands, medallions and carved planters accent the first four floors of the façade. The western elevation of the building is enlivened by a reflective blue glass curving façade that enhances the views from the tenant areas and complements the curve along the street. The exterior brick and glass materials were chosen to blend with and complement the existing building and parking structure.
