Located at 425 N. New Ballas Road and constructed in 1980, Ballas Place has 74 percent occupancy. Current anchor tenants include Central Bank of St. Louis, Trileaf Corp, Brookdale Senior Living and the consulting firm Povaddo.

The new owner plans to invest $4 million in building upgrades over the next year including transforming the two story atrium into shared collaborative space.
