Clearing an office in Central West End and Cortex
This midtown district sits east of Forest Park, from the Washington University and BJC medical campus on Kingshighway Boulevard and the Euclid Avenue blocks of the Central West End east to the Cortex innovation district along Forest Park Avenue and Duncan Avenue. Tenants are hospitals and research labs, bioscience and tech startups, university offices and food science firms.
Cortex mixes new lab and office buildings such as @4240 with rehabbed industrial buildings, while the Central West End has medical office buildings and older mid-rise offices with retail below. Lab spaces add benches, fume hoods and equipment that need their own removal path, and many buildings rely on shared docks or street-side loading.

Planning a Central West End and Cortex move-out
What experienced facilities teams account for in this district before the first desk comes apart.
- Get a Blocking Right of Way Permit from the City of St. Louis Street Department if a truck or dumpster will block any part of the street or sidewalk.
- Separate lab benches, casework and research equipment from office furniture early, and confirm lab decommissioning sign-off before movers arrive.
- Avoid the Kingshighway medical campus at shift changes, when hospital traffic and parking fill the surrounding streets.
- Use the MetroLink Cortex and Central West End stations for crew access, since street parking near Euclid and Duncan is scarce.
- Coordinate loading with neighboring labs and City Foundry STL tenants that share drives and service areas off Forest Park Avenue.
