Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

The property consists of a three-story church building constructed in 1900, totaling approximately 12,610 square feet plus a below-grade basement. The building sits on a rectangular 10,000 square foot lot and is described as being delivered in “as-is, where-is” condition. The site is being offered for sale by a bankruptcy trustee pursuant to a court order and is zoned R6A.

Located in the Bedford Stuyvesant neighborhood at the corner of Van Buren Street and Marcus Garvey Boulevard, the parcel is listed as approximately 0.2296 acres. The seller notes that, in the past, a proposed redevelopment plan included a mixed-use concept with a ground-floor 7,000 square foot church component, clergy residential use, and additional residential rental units totaling 20+.

For buyers and redevelopment-oriented tenants, the combination of a multi-story church improvement and R6A zoning supports adaptive reuse and redevelopment planning. The sale process is auction-based via Zoom on January 29, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. (EST), with an opening bid stated as no less than $6,200,000 and a five percent buyer’s premium for the successful bidder. The transaction is described as all-cash and free and clear of all tenancies, occupancies, leasehold interests, liens, claims, and encumbrances.
