The 2.2-acre site, at 8400 Delmar Boulevard, had been owned since 2018 by a company affiliated with AKG Development. LuxLiving acquired the property last month. The office building currently contains the Global Village Language Center, while small business Craft Central is located in a building on the parking lot.

Plans call for a five-story Element by Westin Hotel, according to University City planning documents, though the developer says negotiations with hotel brands arent final yet. The four-story luxury apartment building would be mostly one-bedroom and studio apartments, with about 29 two-bedroom apartments out of 160 total units. The developer would also add a restaurant space to the building.

University City Planning Director Cliff Cross said the University City Council is expected to take up the rezoning matter at its Feb. 24 meeting. Approval of the final plan could come as soon as this summer. Construction is expected to take 18 to 24 months after that.

LuxLiving, led by Victor Alston and Sidarth Chakraverty, has been busy in recent years. It is finishing up leasing on its new Bordeaux apartments, a 48-unit rehab of an old mop factory in Lafayette Square, and it expects to complete construction of its 150-unit Chelsea apartments on Pershing Avenue in the Skinker-DeBaliviere neighborhood later this year. It recently proposed another 150-unit building in that neighborhood.
