“People come to downtown St. Louis to see the Arch, to catch a ballgame,
to attend a convention. People will want to stay here after they
experience The Bottle District,” said Dan McGuire, CEO of BDP, LLC. “These
are one-of-a- kind places in a one-of-a-kind venue. There’s nothing else
like it.”

Irish immigrants settled in this area of St. Louis and named it the Kerry
Patch around 1845. Developers have already unearthed antique bottles from
that era. Those, along with a 25 foot historic Vess Soda Bottle on the
property, played a part in naming the district.

Designed by Lighthouse Architects, The Bottle District offers a unique
pedestrian environment, with intimate courtyards, wide sidewalks and an
entire street reserved for walking. And since it is in the heart of the
city, just north of the Edward Jones Dome, visitors are treated to
stunning views of the surrounding architecture.

The project will be built by Clayco Construction, with groundbreaking
slated for fall of 2004. The first three blocks in The Bottle District
will open in the spring/summer of 2006. The remaining four blocks will be
completed by 2008. When complete, the entire district will include:

—500,000 square feet of entertainment venues—175,000 square feet of
dining—45,000 square feet of premium office space—More than 200 new
residential units, with 60 loft units.
