Metropolitan Flats offers 3,631 SF of retail and restaurant space at 4561 Forest Park Avenue, part of a 212-unit residential building with 95%+ apartment occupancy in the heart of the Central West End. The space is divisible into Suite A at 2,480 SF and Suite B at 1,151 SF, providing flexibility for a single larger user or two independent tenants.

An 800 SF outdoor patio extends the usable space beyond the interior footprint, well suited for restaurant or café tenants looking to offer outdoor dining. A wall of windows and a raised storefront with elevated entrances above Forest Park Avenue create strong sightlines and visibility into the space from the street.

The building sits at the signalized intersection of Forest Park Parkway and Euclid Avenue, one of the most heavily trafficked corners in the Central West End. Street and garage parking provide convenient access for customers, addressing a key consideration for retail and restaurant tenants in a dense, walkable neighborhood.

The 212-unit residential base above the retail space provides a built-in customer pool with consistent daily demand, supported by the building’s high occupancy rate. This on-site residential density complements the surrounding neighborhood foot traffic generated by the CWE’s mix of sidewalk cafés, boutiques, spas, and national retailers including Whole Foods, Lululemon, and Shake Shack.

The CWE’s pedestrian-scaled design and diverse retail mix create strong cross-shopping traffic and extended dwell time throughout the day, benefiting tenants across restaurant, retail, and service categories. The combination of a high-traffic signalized corner, on-site residential demand, and an established, amenity-rich neighborhood makes Metropolitan Flats a strong fit for restaurant or retail concepts seeking visibility and built-in customer volume.

This space is well suited for tenants prioritizing a high-foot-traffic, mixed-use location with flexible suite configurations, patio potential, and direct access to one of St. Louis’s most active urban retail corridors.
