SAN ANTONIO—Weston Urban, KDC and TRT Holdings Inc. recently broke ground on Frost Tower, the first development of its kind in 27 years. Completion is slated for 2019.
The approximately 460,000-square-foot class-A office tower in downtown will serve as Cullen/Frost Bankers Inc.'s corporate headquarters. As a part of a public-private partnership agreement among Weston Urban, Frost and the city of San Antonio, the former Frost building was sold to the city and will centralize approximately 1,400 city employees.
“This project has been many, many moons in the making, but I don't think there's any doubt that what we're building has been worth the wait. And we've assembled the dream team–KDC and Clark–to deliver it,” Randy Smith, CEO, Weston Urban tells GlobeSt.com. “We are moving the bar two notches up in terms of both sense of place and quality of space available in San Antonio. Companies with a sophisticated approach to attracting and retaining the type of talent needed in the knowledge economy already know the value of both of those things.”
