Ford School presents a compelling opportunity to acquire a large institutional property located within an Opportunity Zone in the City of St. Louis. Formerly operated as a private school, the property consists of approximately 65,880 square feet situated on a 3.87-acre site, offering a substantial building footprint with significant excess land. The two-story structure provides a flexible layout suitable for continued educational use or adaptive reuse, including community, institutional, or commercial applications, subject to zoning and municipal approvals. Zoned B, the property supports a wide range of potential uses and is well positioned within the St. Louis City submarket with convenient access to surrounding neighborhoods and major corridors. The expansive site allows for parking, outdoor programming, campus-style operations, or future redevelopment, making it attractive to charter schools, nonprofits, churches, community organizations, or investors seeking scale and long-term upside. Its Opportunity Zone designation further enhances its appeal for redevelopment-focused buyers. This offering represents a rare chance to reposition a legacy school facility with strong land value and redevelopment potential in an established urban location. SLPS
