Positioned at the signalized intersection of Highway 101 and 5th Street, Crescent Village Shopping Center offers a rare leasing opportunity in Crescent City’s most prominent retail corridor. This 75,911-square-foot center is now available for the first time in decades following Rite Aid’s exit, presenting a prime chance to secure space in a high-barrier coastal market.
Crescent City serves as the county seat of Del Norte County and is the regional hub for commerce, healthcare, education, and tourism. The center benefits from direct exposure to Highway 101, the major north-south arterial connecting San Francisco to southern Oregon, with multiple ingress/egress points and a large highway pylon for signage. The property is anchored by Safeway and surrounded by national retailers including Walmart Supercenter, Home Depot, CVS, AutoZone, Starbucks, and Chipotle, creating strong cross-shopping synergies.
The area draws over 1.5 million annual visitors to its rugged coastline and nearby Redwood parks, which have served as filming locations for iconic movies like E.T., Jurassic Park, and Return of the Jedi. With strict coastal development protections and natural geographic boundaries, this market offers limited new retail development opportunities, making this center a coveted location for expanding brands.
Recent upgrades include a new roof installed in 2020 on the former Rite Aid space. The site also includes a junior box, multiple shop spaces, and a pad site suitable for ground lease or build-to-suit restaurant development.
