Saxum West is pleased to present 3700 E. Cesar E. Chavez Ave — a newly renovated, ±7,000 SF single-tenant retail building situated at the hard corner of Cesar Chavez Ave and Eastman Ave in the heart of East Los Angeles. The building includes ±5,000 SF of ground-floor space (10-12’ ceilings) and ±2,000 SF of usable mezzanine (8.5’ ceilings) connected by interior staircase, plus a gated rear parking lot with a separate, secure & private loading area.
The building has been brought to a partially improved shell / white box condition with a brand new roof, new 200A electrical service (120/240V, 1P, 3W), all-new recessed LED lighting throughout, two restrooms, new drywall and fresh paint, and a current Certificate of Occupancy. Fire Life Safety inspection has been completed and passed, reducing the typical 6–9 month permitting and improvement timeline that a new tenant would otherwise face with a raw or older space.
Located on one of East LA's primary commercial spines, the property is right across the street from Superior Grocers and CVS Pharmacy — two of the highest-traffic anchor tenants in the trade area. Surrounding co-tenancy includes Brooklyn Hardware, multiple medical and dental clinics, restaurants, and dense neighborhood retail. The corner location offers two-street frontage and exceptional signage visibility — a rare combination at this lease rate in the East LA market.
The property is zoned LCC3 (Unlimited Commercial Zone) under the unincorporated LA County jurisdiction, with the Cesar Chavez Avenue Transect Plan (Flex Block) overlay. LCC3 is one of the broadest commercial zonings in unincorporated LA County and permits a wide range of by-right retail and service uses — including auto parts retail, hardware and building supply stores, general retail, apparel, furniture and appliance stores, restaurants, medical and dental offices, fitness studios, daycare centers, pharmacies, and professional services. The expansive permitted-use range, combined with the building's hard-corner visibility, gated rear parking, and below-market rate, makes this an exceptional opportunity for a single tenant looking to anchor a high-visibility East LA location.
