The Marketer building at 15 East 14th Street in Over-the-Rhine is officially up for grabs, with a $9.3 million asking price. The three-story office property, built in 2017, totals about 65,219 square feet and long served as home base for local advertising agency Empower. That pencils out to roughly $142 per square foot.
Listing platforms and local coverage show the offering surfacing this spring at that $9.3 million price. LoopNet lists the Marketer as a 65,219-square-foot office property, while Local 12 notes that the Cincinnati Business Courier first reported the listing and that it was posted April 28, 2026.
Listing details and the broker
Marketing materials on Cushman & Wakefield identify Senior Director Joe Janszen as the listing broker. The site lists a $9.3 million sale price, a price per square foot of about $142, and a total building size of 65,219 square feet. It also notes that the property was built in 2017 and is roughly 60% occupied, with a downloadable brochure available for anyone eyeing a deal.
From agency HQ to coworking hub
The Marketer has played host to a cluster of marketing firms and events, and organizers say the space served as Empower’s headquarters before the current sale listing. The website for The Marketer Collaborative lists Jim Price among the founders who helped shape the building’s marketing-focused identity.
Why investors will be watching
Any buyer will have a choice to make: keep the Marketer as an office building or pursue a conversion to residential or mixed use. That kind of calculation has influenced recent deals in downtown Cincinnati, according to CoStar. Combined with Over-the-Rhine’s growing retail and coworking activity, those trends could put the property on the radar of both long-term office investors and adaptive reuse developers.
Prospective buyers can request the brochure and contact Joe Janszen through the Cushman & Wakefield listing. We will update if the sale moves forward or a buyer steps up for the OTR asset.
