Fogelman Properties has recently completed a renovation and rebrand of a 489-unit multifamily community located in Chesterfield Mo. Originally built in 1987 as Westmont at Chesterfield, the completed project has been rebranded as 15Seventy.
The community features a contemporary design accented with industrial and rustic finishes. The renovation included a new WiFi cafe, a redesigned open-concept lobby and leasing center, and significant upgrades to both the indoor and outdoor pools and tennis courts. New gathering spaces were also included, such as an outdoor entertainment kitchen, a poolside pavilion with soft seating, and an indoor resident kitchen area.
A completely new fitness center was built and features state-of-the-art equipment and programs, including a FIT Studio space outfitted with Wellbeats, spin bikes, and a core strength system from Torque.
To date, 220 of the 489 units have been refreshed with granite countertops, new cabinetry, wood-style flooring, and stainless-steel appliances. 15Seventy offers one- and two-bedroom units with rent starting at $1,127.
