Listing Summary

Lumen STL was one of St. Louis' premier Event/Banquet spaces, opening on New Year's Eve 2011 and quickly establishing itself as a top venue thanks to its modern, contemporary design and versatile space, equipped with high-end amenities. The venue features unique elements, including a state-of-the-art LED lighting system capable of creating various atmospheres, as well as a culinary kitchen that rivals the finest restaurants in St. Louis. Spanning 8,850 square feet, the event space comfortably accommodates a sit-down dinner for up to 200 guests, with a maximum capacity of 465. This presents a fantastic opportunity to acquire a nearly "turn-key" Event/Banquet space; all you need is a capable staff.

Interior Description:

 

This remarkable event space features a soaring ceiling height of over 20 feet, beautiful wood floors, floor-to-ceiling windows, and a custom LED lighting system. The main event area spans approximately 4,200 square feet, a grand space that can accommodate up to 366 guests, while comfortably seating 220 when operating as Lumen STL, offering the potential to host grand events.

 

Additional highlights include a 24-foot stainless steel bar, art-deco bar lights, ornate columns with LED uplighting, a blackened ceiling, and an elegant Italian marble staircase leading to the mezzanine level, which has an occupancy capacity of 99 guests. The mezzanine also features an ornate iron balcony overlooking the main floor, making this event and banquet center a premier destination for any special occasion.

Location:

Located in Downtown West, easy to access from any direction, and skirting downtown St. Louis in an area that is rebranding as "City Commons." If everything proceeds as planned, visitors will recognize City Commons as the new name for the blocks around Energizer Park, home to St. Louis City SC. Over $1 billion in investment is either planned or underway, making this a prime location with high investment potential. Other landmarks nearby include Schlafly Tap Room, the Aquarium, and the Ferris Wheel at Union Station, to name a few.
