DCM management vice president Don C. Musick III (left) at the final
Board of Alderman approval meeting for The Meridian at Brentwood
project.
The area at Hanley Road and Highway 40 will give the city of Brentwood
a new skyline in the fall of 2002. The Meridian at Brentwood, a
project of developer DCM Management and Don C. Musick Construction
Co. will be the first metropolitan development to include a MetroLink
station in its initial design concept.
Developers have worked with Brentwood to take advantage of the unique
location along the Highway 40 corridor, east of I-270 and near I-l70.
DCM believes this makes the development central to most of the metro
area destinations, including the airport.
DCM, Brentwood, St. Louis County and MODOT are working to improve
current traffic problems along Eager Road, the frontage for the
development. In addition to the MetroLink station, traffic solutions
include widening Eager Road to five lanes from the bridge over the
MetroLink right of way to Hanley Road.
“This project will provide 1,800 new jobs, at least 500 of which
will be relocating from New York,” says Don C. Musick, III, president
of Don C. Musick Construction Co. and the developer of The Meridian.
