2614 Cherokee

PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

This new storefront in a century-old building is ready for new life with your business concept! At over 2,000 square feet, this space is expansive and flexible, with 40 feet of glass storefront allowing for an abundance of exposure in one of the densest, highest foot traffic areas of Cherokee. The space also has two dedicated offices, work rooms, or storage areas at the rear, and is live/work ready with the inclusion of a shower in the restroom. Within this block alone are a number of shops and restaurants including Mesa Home, Saint Louis Hop Shop, Brandin Vaughn Collection, Butter Love Skin, City Mouse Vintage, STL Virtuoso Collective, Carrillo Western Wear and K-Bop – all on the same block! 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, The Noir Bookshop 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. 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. Additionally, in the interest of promoting a peaceful environment for adjacent tenants in our mixed use and multi-tenant buildings, we do not rent commercial spaces to businesses that produce significant odors, chemical or otherwise; this includes but is not limited to nail salons, hair salons, and the manufacturing of any scent-based product (candles, perfumes, etc.). Likewise, businesses that produce a lot of noise are not permissible; this includes but is not limited to event spaces, performance venues, and music production. If your business is one of these uses, please join our waitlist for a standalone building.

This building was renovated in 2023 to historic standards as part of the Historic Preservation Tax Credit Program. Compliance with the program requires that these standards be maintained, and as a result, permissible tenant alterations are limited; the space is eligible for retail use only, and is not suitable for use as a bar, restaurant, salon, barbershop, beauty studio, or any other use that would require modification of the existing plumbing plan. The completed project includes six residential spaces and three commercial storefronts. 2614 Cherokee is the largest of the three. See also 2616 Cherokee and 2618 Cherokee, and learn more about the renovation here.

Price is $2,450/month for rent plus $100/month for water and sewer. Tenant is responsible for trash, internet, gas, and electric charges. The advertised rental rate reflects a $150/mo discount for paying rent via ACH / wire transfer on the first of the month. Metered street parking available on Cherokee and Jefferson.
