Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

Located at the corner of Mt. Olivet Road and Montello Avenue NE, this commercial listing offers a 3,000-square-foot freestanding commercial building and the Northeast Supermarket business. The MU-4 zoning permits mixed-use development, blending multi-family housing with neighborhood-serving retail, office spaces, and service centers. The Northeast Supermarket has been a retail hub for the community for approximately 70 years. Recent upgrades include a new commercial roof and a new commercial cooler system. The property is located inside the target zone of the District’s multi-phase municipal revitalization plans, including The Ivy City Small Area Plan, which guides infrastructure capital into this corridor. The city's master plan prioritizes the expansion of new housing options, active pedestrian-friendly streets, and community-serving commercial retail along the Ivy City and Trinidad borders. The location is positioned blocks away from Union Market and Ivy City. The property offers air rights expansion, allowing for the development of a multi-story apartment or condo complex over ground-floor retail.

Key Highlights

  • High‑upside mixed‑use redevelopment potential: MU‑4 zoning allows for multi‑family housing with retail, office, or service centers, enabling lucrative vertical development.
  • Turnkey business with strong cash flow: Includes the Northeast Supermarket, a thriving business with consistent revenue under absentee ownership, ensuring immediate income.
  • Strategic location in revitalization zone: Situated within the Ivy City Small Area Plan, benefiting from planned public and private infrastructure investment.
