Medical School Coming to Northside Regeneration in St. Louis

Ponce Health Sciences University plans to build an $80-million medical school campus in the heart of locally-based M Property Services’ NorthSide Regeneration development in North St. Louis. The school will support up to 1,200 students and create up to 120 staff and faculty positions in the St. Louis area. Construction is set to begin later this year or early 2021.

The new medical school campus will be located in North St. Louis near Jefferson and Cass Avenues on the former Pruitt-Igoe site and is one of several projects underway within the NorthSide Regeneration development, which also includes a new $1.75 billion National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency West headquarters currently under construction. The school is tentatively scheduled to open in fall 2021.

“Ponce Health Sciences University is going to be significant to our town,” said M Property Services chairman Paul McKee, Jr.
