In Missouri, pharmaceuticals company Bayer is marketing an office and data center campus totaling more than 546,000 square feet (50,700 sqm) that is ready for immediate occupancy or full redevelopment in Creve Coeur.

The property sits on a 95-acre infill site at the southwest corner of Lindbergh Blvd. and Olive Blvd, and currently spans office space, cafeteria, and a data center. Current zoning allows more than two million square feet, offering zoning potential. The data center was built in 2007 and totals 36,000 sq ft (3,300 sq m).

“We’ve has seen tremendous interest already for the site and have begun property tours,” said JLL’s Capital Markets group managing director Tom Kirschbraun. “We will begin accepting offers within the coming weeks and anticipate closing by end of year."

Germany-based Bayer acquired the campus with its 2018 purchase of Monsanto for $65 billion. Despite expanding the site and saying in 2019 it plans to bring 500 new jobs to the site, the company recently said it envisions "a future that will require less physical office space than before." The company is retaining some of its buildings in the area.
