Ballpark Village Plans Announced

By KSPR News

ST. LOUIS (AP) - The new plan for Ballpark Village is announced.

The Cardinals on Wednesday revealed the revised plan for the area just outside of the new Busch Stadium, at the site of where the old ballpark used to sit.

Cardinals president Bill DeWitt III says that by the time the 2009 All-Star Game is played in St. Louis, several buildings should be under construction. A date for completing construction has not been set.

Plans call for a mixed-use development of office and retail space in Phase 1. Up to 250 residential units would be added in Phase 2.

The concept was announced years ago but has hit several snags. But DeWitt says he is thrilled with the new project, especially considering the difficult economic environment.
