Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This renovated five-story commercial building is designed for flexible occupancy, with retail on the first floor and office and/or work-live loft space on the upper levels. The building is approximately 10,000 square feet in total, with roughly 2,000 square feet per floor, and each level includes its own kitchen. Restrooms are distributed by floor: floors 1, 2, and 4 feature two half baths, while floors 3 and 5 offer one full and one-half bath. Floors 1 through 3 are currently vacant, giving an owner the option to reposition, lease, or occupy as individual levels.

The property is positioned in downtown Cincinnati, described in the offering as right at the edge of OTR. The immediate setting is characterized by surrounding dining, entertainment, and urban amenities, supporting tenant interest from retail users on the ground level through office or creative users above. For occupancy planning, the building supports both multi-floor control and level-by-level availability.

For investors and owner-occupants, the flexible zoning and mixed retail/office configuration can accommodate a range of work-from-home businesses, creative studios, or open-concept office setups. With multiple independently planned levels and kitchens, it may also suit operators looking for dedicated in-unit functionality by floor. Floors 1–3 are available for lease at $2,400 per month per floor, providing a starting point for phased leasing.
