Former Target West office in St. Louis Park sells

Opus sold the 309,000-square-foot former Target office at 3701 Wayzata Blvd. in St. Louis Park to Real Capital Solutions for $34 million.[1]

The property is 99% leased and houses the headquarters of Tactile Medical, Regis Corp., SRF Consulting and MOBE, with just 2,729 square feet vacant.[1]

Opus bought the site from Target in December 2018 for $22.1 million and completed a roughly $5.7 million repositioning in 2019 that added amenities such as a rooftop deck and fitness center.[1]

Opus had listed the stabilized asset for sale in March 2026 before agreeing to the disposition.[1]

The mainstream summary does not mention the broader context of the Minneapolis-St. Paul office market, which is experiencing significant vacancy rates ranging from 22.1% to 27.5% as of early 2026. This contrasts sharply with the 99% occupancy of the former Target office, highlighting its relative strength in a challenging market. Reports indicate that suburban office submarkets in the Twin Cities are faring better, with vacancy rates below 12%, suggesting a bifurcation in demand favoring suburban Class A properties with modern amenities over downtown locations. This trend aligns with findings from a 2023 NYU Stern working paper that attributes a long-term decline in office space demand to the rise of remote and hybrid work models, which has led to a significant reduction in U.S. office values overall. However, high-quality suburban buildings like this one are less affected due to their appeal in terms of accessibility and amenities.[2][3]
