PROFESSIONAL COMMERCIAL LEASING OVERVIEW
6,400 SF Office/Retail – 1902 W Cermak Rd, Chicago, IL 60608 (Pilsen)
EXCEPTIONAL SUBMARKET & LOCATION OVERVIEW
Dynamic Pilsen Submarket. Positioned in the heart of Pilsen—a vibrant and evolving West Side community celebrated for its cultural richness, mural-adorned streetscapes, and growing creative economy—this property capitalizes on both local allure and mainstream momentum. The presence of a long-standing Walgreens directly across the street (serving the neighborhood for nearly 40 years) further underscores the location’s enduring visibility and established foot traffic.
TRAFFIC & EXPOSURE
Cermak Road accommodates an Average Daily Traffic (ADT) volume of approximately 20,996 vehicles per weekday, reflecting robust vehicular flow and high exposure, ideal for retail and service-oriented occupiers.
TRANSIT ACCESSIBILITY
CTA Bus Access: Multiple bus routes—including Route 21 (Cermak–South)—serve the corridor, delivering consistent and convenient access for both commuters and patrons. The 31st (Pilsen-bound) route also provides key localized connectivity. Proximity to CTA Rail: A short walk grants access to the Pink Line via Damen Station, facilitating swift downtown and cross-city access—a compelling draw for tenants and employees.
NEARBY CULTURAL AND COMMERCIAL ANCHORS
Situated steps from Pilsen’s mural corridor, the National Museum of Mexican Art, and vibrant local businesses, the property benefits from continuous cultural and neighborhood activity. Walgreens across the street provides legacy brand support and daily customer footfall.
PROPERTY & SPACE FEATURES – 6,400 SF
Main Level – 4,000 SF. This versatile 4,000 SF offering is tailored for both office and retail configurations and is thoughtfully outfitted with premium amenities. The reception and entry present an open and inviting area at the entrance—ideal for seamless customer or client greeting. There are seven private offices in total, including one with an in-suite private bathroom and one featuring an internal sink for convenience. A large front office measuring 15' × 12' provides expansive windows overlooking 18th Street—well-suited for branding and visibility. The largest office, at 15' × 20', is ideal for executive use, a boardroom, or a creative studio.
A collaborative workspace measuring 26' × 12' serves as an open cubicle zone; the existing drop-down ceilings offer the option to remove and expose approximately 10-ft ceiling height, enhancing spatial openness. Support and amenity spaces include a full commercial-style kitchen equipped with a stove hood, tall refrigerator, double sinks, generous prep surfaces, and abundant shelving—suitable for food support, a breakroom, or hybrid retail prep. Two common-area restrooms support staff and public use, and a dedicated private storage room adds practical utility.
Lower Level – 2,400 SF (Finished). The fully finished lower level comprises approximately 2,400 SF with tile flooring and additional bathrooms, making it ideal for back-office functions, creative studios, or staff break areas. Parking and Convenience: Six exclusive, private parking spaces provide a valuable premium in Pilsen’s dense urban context.
STRATEGIC POSITIONING: WHY THIS PROPERTY STANDS OUT
Maximized Exposure & Accessibility: With approximately 21,000 vehicles passing daily along Cermak Road, combined with strong CTA bus and rail access, the location benefits from exceptional visibility and consistent commuter and neighbor traffic. Established Local Anchor: Walgreens across the street delivers both trust and daily foot traffic, enhancing brand familiarity for incoming tenants. Cultural and Creative Momentum: Pilsen’s rapid revitalization, cultural appeal, and influx of national and creative tenants reinforce the neighborhood’s retail and office desirability. Functional, Tenant-Ready Layout: The current configuration’s flexibility—including kitchen, private baths, high-clearance zones, and a finished lower level—drastically reduces landlord improvement costs and speeds leasing timelines.
