Pending finalization of construction-related permits and approvals, site preparation for the $34.2 million Dierbergs project is likely to begin later this summer.
Dierbergs plans to open the Dierbergs Lakeview Pointe shopping center by spring of 2013. The store will be located on the Osage Beach Parkway at the site of what was formerly known as the High Pointe Center. The site is conveniently located within a quarter mile of the Passover Road interchange off of the recently completed Highway 54 bypass.
The center will be anchored by an approximately 77,000-square-foot grocery store, the company’s 25th store and its first supermarket outside the St. Louis metro area. A Dierbergs store in Wentzville, Mo., presently marks the company’s western-most boundary.
The store will include an expansive mezzanine with indoor and outdoor dining with a panoramic view of the Lake of the Ozarks.
The store will also include a 30-foot high Market Hall structure with an abundance of natural light, trusses and other architectural details. The store will include an FTD florist and a large organic food section.
The balance of the center comprises an additional structure to be occupied by two to three national tenants and additional retail space attached to the supermarket. The construction timelines and store openings for the center’s tenants will be determined as leases are signed, according to Jerry Ebest, Dierbergs vice president of real estate.
“There’s a lot of interest in this property from retailers who have long considered becoming part of the growing lake community. We’re having discussions with several who would be new and welcome additions to the area,” says Ebest.
Dierbergs Markets was founded in 1854 in West St. Louis County. Four generations have managed the company, which had only one location until 1967. Today, Dierbergs employs 4,000 associates in 23 St. Louis metropolitan area stores. The company will open its 24th location in the West St. Louis County suburb of Des Peres in summer 2012.
