A building on Natural Bridge Avenue that until recently housed a playground equipment manufacturer is targeted for a rehab to accommodate two new tenants in the office furniture business.

Refurbiture, which currently uses a warehouse on Biddle Street on the north riverfront, plans to become a new tenant in the building at 5642 Natural Bridge Avenue. And the company Refurbiture uses for its showroom, Warehouse of Fixtures, plans to take some space there, too.

A company affiliated with SportsPlay Equipment Inc., a manufacturer of playground equipment, sold the plant to an entity affiliated with owners of both companies in late May for $700,000 according to city records. SportsPlay Equipment’s website now lists a plant in Leadington and offices in University City.

The board of the St. Louis Enhanced Enterprise Zone recommended a measure Tuesday that would allow 10 years of tax abatement on the building. Tax abatement only gives owners a break on the increased value from improvements to a building. The new owner plans to invest about $300,000 in the industrial facility.
