This high-visibility ground lease / build-to-suit opportunity is available as an outparcel to the Manatee West Shopping Center, which features notable tenants such as healthcare provider MaxHealth and national retailers Subway and Edward Jones. The surrounding area benefits from strong traffic generated by nearby retailers including Target, Five Below, Wawa, and Starbucks coming soon.
The parcel fronting Manatee Avenue will potentially accommodate a building upwards of 3,000 SF with a drive-thru. It is located within the Suburban Commercial Corridor zoning district in the city of Bradenton, offering a wide range of potential uses such as a restaurant, drive-thru, office or medical office, among others.
Situated on Manatee Avenue West, one of Bradenton’s primary east-west thoroughfares, the site provides direct access from Interstate 75 and Lakewood Ranch to Anna Maria Island. This stretch of Manatee Avenue West serves as the final major retail destination before reaching the Island and has seen significant redevelopment, including a Wawa, Manatee Memorial Hospital Emergency Department, Starbucks coming soon, and the recent openings of Target and Five Below directly across the street.
Anna Maria Island attracts nearly four million visitors annually, with an average of approximately 1,100 overnight guests each day, supporting a strong tourism economy. Alongside tourism, the area is home to large employers including Tropicana, Bealls, Fit 2 Run, and HCA Blake Hospital.
