CRESTWOOD, Mo. — A Panera Bread could open as part of the new Dierbergs-anchored redevelopment of the former Crestwood Plaza mall.
Panera Bread submitted an application to open a drive-thru restaurant at 9591 Watson Road in Crestwood through architectural firm The Lawrence Group, according to city documents.
The 2,400-square-foot restaurant would occupy half of an outbuilding that has already been built as part of the construction process for the $67 million Crestwood Crossing mixed-use redevelopment of the former mall. As part of the overall project, McBride Homes is constructing a subdivision with 81 new houses, The Villages of Crestwood Crossing, on the former mall property.
