The Opus Group has delivered the Soulard Commerce Center, a Class-A warehouse building in the St. Louis market. JLL is handling the leasing for the center.
The 154,937-square-foot spec warehouse is located in the 35-acre Soulard Business Park at Second and Barton streets in St. Louis City. Developed by The Opus Group, it’s the first modern industrial building in the area since 2004. The building can accommodate final-mile destination warehouse and delivery, light manufacturing or general office/warehouse uses.
“This area of the city, and for that matter points further south in the city and county, are the most supply constrained in our market when it comes to modern industrial building product,” said Pat Reilly, executive vice president of industrial leasing for JLL. “It is a swath of the market with significant barriers to developing at scale, and The Opus Group has achieved that in Soulard Commerce Center.”
Soulard Commerce Center is designed for multiple tenants, with individual build-to-suit spaces starting at about 22,000 square feet. It features 32-foot clear height ceilings and 24 trailer parking stalls to suit a variety of uses, including e-commerce and urban logistics.
With easy access to Interstates 44, 55, 70 and 64, it can meet the distribution needs of modern final-mile networks, which have become ever more important with the explosive growth of e-commerce.
