Unlock the immense potential of this prime property located in a rapidly transforming area, perfectly positioned for future growth and development. Situated along the alignment of the upcoming light rail system, this location promises high traffic and significant appreciation in value. The flexible zoning (residential, business, commercial) provides a blank canvas for a visionary developer or owner-user to capitalize on the area's transition into a vibrant, transit-oriented district. The existing structure is an older property, presenting an ideal "ready for your upgrades to unlock value" scenario. This is a ground-floor opportunity to invest in a location poised to become a central hub of activity, with easy access to future transit, retail, and employment clusters.
