Bsmt Floor Ste East Office 3,500 SF Rate Upon Request
This approximately 3,000 square foot space offers a secure indoor environment for organizations requiring archival storage and small businesses/individuals in need of off-site storage. Located within the well-maintained Ashton Building, the space provides a large open area ideal for storing equipment, inventory, files, supplies, or other non-perishable items.

The space features low ceiling heights, making it best suited for storage use only rather than active workspace. Access is provided by stairway entry with limited elevator availability. While the property does not include a loading dock, the layout still allows tenants to organize and store substantial quantities of goods.

Just steps away from the light rail and high-speed bus lines and with close proximity to I-94, the property is centrally located and easily accessible to and from both St. Paul and Minneapolis.
