What the buildings look like

Earth City has a mix you won't find in many St. Louis submarkets: multi-tenant office-warehouse buildings with smaller bays, mid-size distribution buildings with dock-high loading, and large modern facilities with 30-foot-plus clear heights. Many buildings date from the 1980s and 1990s and have been updated over the years. Newer space commands higher rents.

It's a strong fit if you need a professional address with real loading, and you want your trucks on an interstate within minutes rather than winding through city streets.

What to know before you search

Rents vary widely by building age, size, clear height and office finish, and many landlords quote rates only on request. Across the metro, CBRE reported an average industrial asking rent of $5.60/SF and vacancy of 6.9% in Q3 2026. I'll get you current Earth City numbers for spaces that actually fit.

Good small spaces go fast. Well-located small bays often lease before they're widely advertised, so getting your requirement in early matters.

Work with someone who's owned industrial property.

I'm Brian Travers, Managing Principal of Optimus, part of KW Commercial. I've spent more than 30 years building, acquiring and running companies and commercial real estate portfolios in St. Louis, so I look at a space the way an owner and operator does: loading, power, access, operating costs and room to grow, not just the asking rent.

Industrial along the I-70 corridor, from North St. Louis out to Warrenton, is my focus. Earth City sits right in the middle of it.
