Frost Tower, San Antonio, rendering<\/p><\/div>\n

San Antonio<\/strong>\u2014Weston Urban<\/a>\u00a0revealed the design of\u00a0the new Frost Tower, a 420,000-square-foot office building in downtown San Antonio. As Commercial Property Executive<\/em> reported in September 2015, the Texas-based developer is working with architectural firm\u00a0Pelli Clarke Pelli<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is nothing like it in our market.\u00a0Firms like Pelli Clarke Pelli are not typically associated with San Antonio,\u201d Randy Smith, Weston Urban\u2019s CEO, told Commercial Property Executive<\/a><\/em>. \u201cTheir world class design, paired with the inherent walkability of our urban core and the renovated San Pedro Creek immediately next door offer tenants a package that cannot be matched anywhere else in South or Central Texas.\u201d<\/p>\n

Frost Tower will serve as the new corporate, regional headquarters for Frost, a banking and financial services company that has called downtown San Antonio home for nearly 150 years.\u00a0In addition,\u00a020,000 square feet on the ground level will be reserved for retail.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt Frost, we are looking forward to seeing the new tower on the skyline and being part of an energized downtown,\u201d Phil Green, Frost\u2019s chairman & CEO, said in a prepared release. \u201cAfter seeing the Frost sunburst go up on new buildings in downtown Austin, Dallas and Fort Worth, we\u2019re glad to be the named tenant of the newest building in our hometown of San Antonio.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 23-floor building will rise 400 feet and be the first office tower built for the downtown skyline in 27 years.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt has been three decades since our downtown has seen new office product,\u201d Smith said. \u201cOur entire city has so much positive momentum, together with Frost we knew that now was the time for something transformative.\u201d<\/p>\n

Last June, the City of San Antonio approved a public-private partnership agreement<\/a> between Weston Urban, Frost, and COSA. Bexar County also played a significant role, facilitating the completion of the San Pedro Creek improvements project, which will create a park running\u00a0alongside the site of the high-rise.<\/p>\n

Internationally renowned landscape design firm GGN will design the grounds, green space, and hardscape surrounding the new development. Groundbreaking for the tower is planned for winter 2016 and construction is scheduled for completion in late 2018.<\/p>\n

According to Western Urban’s CEO, the design represents a year of hard work by Pelli Clarke Pelli and GGN. \u201cOur mission and purpose is to create authentic spaces in the urban core,\u201d Smith said. \u201cThis is about helping to create the environs that our city needs to compete in the coming knowledge economy.\u00a0Frost Tower will be a very visible piece of that effort.\u201d<\/p>\n
