2606 Cherokee

PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

Available for the first time in ten years! Unique opportunity to expand or launch your business in this prominent retail or restaurant location on the coveted 2600 block of Cherokee. This 600-square-foot storefront offers an abundance of space with details like hardwood flooring, historic tin ceilings, and basement storage. Most recently the home of a tea shop, the existing build-out makes it a plug-and-play option for a coffee shop, restaurant (food prep or light cooking only – no grease), plant shop, or any other use that would benefit from the flexibility of additional plumbing fixtures.

2606 Cherokee is located on the first block west of Jefferson, offering high visibility and commutability in one of the densest neighborhoods in the City of St. Louis – Gravois Park. Experience the best of South City in a growing community; surrounding businesses and amenities generate a ton of foot traffic, and events and festivals keep the street vibrant and active year-round. Within this block alone are a number of shops and restaurants including Carrillo Western Wear, Mesa Home, Your Friend’s Apartment, Nebula, The Fattened Caf, K-Bop, Saint Louis Hop Shop, STL Virtuoso Collective, City Mouse Vintage, and Butter Love Skin. Walk another few feet to the next block east or west and find more, such as The Fortune Teller Bar, Clements Lock & Security, Bridge Bread Bakery, Elaine’s Sandwiches, Profield Reserve, Ruby Francis, The Whiskey Ring, Infinite Spin Records, and Swade Dispensary, to name a few.

We encourage and give preference to small, independently-owned businesses that cater to a wide range of demographics and will contribute to the eclectic mix of existing small businesses in the area. We don’t rent to predatory businesses such as rent-to-own or payday lending stores that prey upon low-income populations. Additionally, we discourage the use of first-floor storefronts in commercial corridors for service-oriented or office-type businesses, which are better suited to side streets or second-floor office spaces as they do not benefit from or contribute to an increase in foot traffic that is vital to retail and restaurant businesses.

Price is $900/month for rent; standard water & sewer charge for retail use is $90/mo, or $150/mo for restaurant use. Security deposit is equal to $900 subject to credit and application approval. Tenant is responsible for trash, internet, gas, and electric charges, as well as their pro rata share of taxes, insurance, and common area maintenance. The advertised rental rate reflects a $75/mo discount for paying rent via ACH / wire transfer on the first of the month.
