Luigy Alvarez & Floyd Shaheen of Floyd Group at Marcus & Millichap are pleased to exclusively present 4734 Firestone Blvd, a recently renovated, freestanding auto-oriented showroom/service facility positioned in one of the most active commercial corridors in Southeast Los Angeles. Offered for the first time in over 40 years, the property consists of an 8,188 SF building on a highly visible 28,239 SF corner lot and is perfectly tailored to owner-users seeking immediate operational value with long-term upside. Fully remodeled between 2023 and 2024, the building features highly functional showroom and office improvements, eight (8) drive-in service bays, heavy power, polished interiors, and secure gated parking previously accommodating over 30 vehicles—a rare advantage in South Gate’s dense trade area. Strategically positioned at a signalized intersection with strong visibility and brand presence, the asset sits directly across from the dominant Azalea Regional Shopping Center, anchored by Walmart Supercenter, In-N-Out Burger, Ulta Beauty, AT&T, Michaels, and TGI Fridays.
The location provides outstanding customer attraction benefits, boosted by high daily traffic counts along Firestone Boulevard and immediate access to the I-710, I-105, and I-110 Freeways. Currently 100% vacant and delivered turnkey, the property is SBA-eligible with minimal to no capital expenditure required. Its combination of recent renovations, ample gated parking, and flexible building layout supports a wide range of automotive sales & service, retail showroom, building supply, third-party logistics service vendors, specialty contractors, or medical/clinic uses. With South Gate undergoing ongoing reinvestment and infrastructure enhancements, this asset offers immediate usability and long-term appreciation potential in a supply-constrained corridor with limited competing inventory. Regional retail dominance: The Azalea Regional Shopping Center—home to Walmart Supercenter, In-N-Out, Ulta Beauty, Michaels, and more—draws consumers from across the Southeast LA trade area and continues to expand its tenant base. The city has completed or initiated multiple projects, including three new and renovated parks in 2025, highlighted by the 7-acre Urban Orchard Park along the LA River, connecting recreation to future mixed-use redevelopment potential.
For nearly a century, South Gate has been a strategic economic engine for Southeast Los Angeles. Historically rooted in industrial production, automotive service, logistics, and small business entrepreneurship, the city became a natural hub for commerce due to its central location between the ports, Downtown Los Angeles, and key Southern California freeways. This business-friendly legacy—built on affordable operating costs, a loyal local labor force, and near-port connectivity—continues to define the market today. With its blend of deep industrial roots and active commercial transformation, South Gate has emerged as one of the most stable, high-performing, and increasingly valuable real estate markets in the Gateway Cities region. Long-term appreciation trends are driven by limited supply, historically low vacancy in user-driven asset classes, and the scarcity of large, well-located parcels like those along Firestone Boulevard.
