Grand Opening of 9147 Clayton Road

Grand Opening of 9147 Clayton Road

Breaking ground in 2018 and facing multiple delays due to the pandemic, 9147 Clayton Road finally opens tomorrow for tours! If you’ve been following our coverage of 9147 Clayton Road over the past month, you know the anticipation of this opening is palpable all over St. Louis.

The home was created to inspire architects to design, homebuilders to build and homeowners to insist upon a Renaissance in living that will accommodate them throughout their entire lives...especially those with disabilities. This paradigm shift in design allows the benefits of multi-generational living to be enjoyed by families across America. The project is focused on creating a highly desirable residential solution for all people with an environment which will enhance the quality of life of the aging baby boomer population, people with disabilities and their families and extend their ability to live independently.

​Jerry Kerr, leader of this project, along with Jere Fabick and Dennis Auping, collaborated extensively with people who have a broad range of disabilities; including multiple amputations, traumatic burn injuries, cognitive impairments, and aging Americans. By combining the latest technologies with the elegant use of universal design, 9147 Clayton is a tangible solution to overcoming their real-life challenges and experiences.

Whether you’re an architect, builder or designer, or a member of the community who is interested in learning more about multigenerational living, 9147 Clayton Road is changing the face of real estate in St. Louis. Don’t miss out on your chance to see it first hand. Book your tour now: https://www.9147clayton.com/tours
