"Current growth projections and other long-term strategies for American Century support the conclusion that by 2008-2010, there will likely be sufficient economic justification to construct the proposed office building for use primarily by American Century," according to the firms filing with Kansas Citys zoning board.
The office tower would be 380,000 square feet and accommodate parking for 1,400 cars in a seven-story garage. American Centurys architectural firm, HKS of Dallas, submitted an artists rendering of the proposed complex at 44 th and Main, showing a landscaped entrance.
American Century currently employs 2,300 people, although during the course of the bear market, it has eliminated jobs, which is why it isnt planning a more aggressive timetable for its new tower, according to The Star.
