This ±8,959 SF corner retail building sits on a 13,050 SF lot with 88 feet of frontage on world-famous Calle Ocho, offering exceptional visibility, strong daily traffic, and a highly recognizable location in a corridor that continues to attract capital, tenants, and redevelopment interest. There is a grandfathered permit for an additional exposure opportunity with a pylon (stick) sign on SW 8th Street, and an existing grease trap is already in place. This property boasts a highly accessible and desirable location just one mile from Brickell/Downtown, one to two minutes from I-95, and minutes from Wynwood, the Design District, Midtown, Coral Gables, Miami International Airport, and the Port of Miami, placing it at the center of Miami’s strongest demand drivers. The broader trade area continues to expand, supported by population growth, new multifamily and mixed-use development, and an ever-growing customer base for retail, food and beverage, medical, and service uses. Current zoning allows for high-density, mixed-use development, specifically up to eight stories with a 5.0 Floor Area Ratio (FAR), or higher limits under the Live Local Act. Suitable uses include retail, restaurant/bar/café, office, showroom, gallery, lodging, learning center, school, a variety of medical office uses, and entertainment and recreational businesses such as an indoor pickleball complex. The area is experiencing a significant wave of primarily housing-led redevelopment, with several projects either recently completed or moving through approvals. The dominant themes are housing and the replacement of older low-rise buildings with denser communities. With new developments continuing to emerge, don’t wait until prices skyrocket after stabilization. Get in now and enjoy the versatility and visibility of this major corridor connecting the heartbeats of Miami. Notable projects - Brisas del Sol: a newly opened 146-unit rental apartment development with two buildings, including a 36-unit garden-style building and an eight-story 110-unit building. - Havana Enclave (315 NW 27th Ave): Developed by The Astor Companies, this project shifted from rental to a 179-unit for-sale condo project targeting "attainable" homeownership.
