ST. LOUIS — The Missouri Athletic Club is considering an expansion into Clayton, which would add to its existing locations in downtown St. Louis and west St. Louis County.

Representatives of the club have toured the newly vacated space of another private organization, the Saint Louis Club, in the Pierre Laclede Center building in downtown Clayton, people familiar with the matter said.

The Saint Louis Club left that space this year, moving into brand-new space at the Centene Plaza C office tower at 7676 Forsyth Blvd. in Clayton. Before switching locations, the private Clayton club previously occupied three floors at Pierre Laclede, at 7701 Forsyth Blvd.

Lingerfelt CommonWealth Partners LLC, a Richmond, Virginia-based investment firm, owns Pierre Laclede Center, also known as Pierre Laclede Center I. It has about 217,957 square feet on 16 floors. A representative of Lingerfelt CommonWealth Partners didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.

Neal Perryman with the Missouri Athletic Club said this was an old update in an email to members Friday. Perryman said no decision had been made and membership would be involved in the process.
