Centrally located in a densely occupied commercial corridor on the corner of West 176th St., the property benefits from high foot traffic and pedestrian flow from public transportation.
“It is rare to find a single-story corner retail asset on a busy corridor in this dense market, the asset garnered a lot of attention from investors.” said Sparks.
Washington Heights continues to attract interest from investors due to its strong fundamentals as well as recent rezoning of this sub-market. This area boasts numerous amenities and institutions including The Cloisters, Yeshiva University and the medical campus of Columbus University.
