St. Louis Retail Market Report 1Q26
The St. Louis Retail Report for 1Q26, published by Newmark Zimmer, examines retail market conditions in the St. Louis region, documenting net absorption of negative 179,870 square feet over the past four quarters driven by tariff-driven uncertainty and cautious tenant behavior, alongside select transaction sales including a 50,000 SF Dick's Sporting Goods property for $13.3 million and other retail assets across multiple submarkets. The report presents market overview data showing the metro vacancy rate increased 30 basis points year-over-year to 4.0%, while the National Retail Federation projects U.S. retail sales growth of 4.4% in 2026, and local market news highlights expansion by chains such as Checkers & Rally's and adaptive reuse projects including Slick City Action Park.
