One Metropolitan Square (Saint Louis)
From Towrs
Overview
A n homage to Saint Louis' cherished French heritage, and a nod to its future, Metropolitan Square is an American skyscraper in the Gallic tradition. It's oversized gables and roof in the same green patina as weathered copper help it nestle comfortably into the skyscraper neighborhood. Although it is a dark brown building, its sliced-off corners and vertical channels of glass help lighten its impact on the city.
