Saint Paul, MN | Tuesday, September 3, 2024
Relocating from their current spot in a multi-tenant building at the cross section of West 7th St and Montreal Ave in St. Paul,Saint City Dental is staying close to their patient base with a new practice.
Groundwork started on the development site for Saint City Dental at 1600 West 7th Street just weeks ago in mid-August, with goals for a first patient day sometime in late spring of 2025. The new building is slated to be an approximately 10,000 sq ft structure with the dental practice occupying most of the building; all but a 1,500 sq ft vacancy on the ground floor. The ground level will be dedicated clinical space for Saint City Dental and the nearly 2,000 sq ft of second floor will accommodate administrative workspaces and staff amenities. This roughly doubles the amount of square footage the dental practitioner currently holds.
When asked why the practice decided to relocate so close to their current location, Dr. Ben Thomas, Owner of Saint City Dental and a Saint Paul native said, “Building this new dental practice is our commitment to meeting the growing needs of the St. Paul community. We are deeply grateful for the trust and support our patients have shown us over the years. Saint City Dental remains dedicated to providing exceptional care to our community, and we look forward to continuing this journey together.”
The urban redevelopment site was long known to be the home of a Burger King, but the chain restaurant location closed abruptly in 2018, when the ownership group was forced to surrender the property due to bankruptcy. In 2022, the City of Saint Paul ordered the vacant structure’s demolition, paving the way for new use.
Project team members include local real estate group, MSP Commercial, providing project management services and Iowa-based Primus Companies, leading construction and design. In addition to 14 treatment rooms, the technical functions of the clinic include a sterilization area, a lab and a CEREC machine, which allows Saint City Dental to offer same-day crowns. The unique second floor design offers a rooftop patio, as well as breakrooms and workspace areas for staff.
