Koenigsberg of American Investment Properties brokers sale of 7,690 s/f

The two-story building, composed of retail space on the ground floor - currently a jewelry store, Japanese restaurant Teriyaki Express and restaurant/bar Gaslight - and a second floor composed of seven professional offices, sold for $950,000, or $123.54 per s/f. The building features a rear parking lot, used solely by the retail and professional tenants, including attorneys, real estate brokers, and their clients.
