Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This downtown commercial space is available in Unit B and offers a flexible, open layout designed for easy adaptation to a tenant’s concept. The interior includes existing customer-facing and service areas, along with sinks, counters, shelving, and other commercial infrastructure. Ceiling height is approximately 10 feet under the current drop ceiling, with the potential to restore the space to approximately 14 feet.

The suite is accessed from Woodworth Avenue and is adjacent to the city municipal parking lot, supporting convenient access for customers, clients, and employees. The space previously operated as a coffee shop and then a smoothie shop, and the existing improvements may be well-suited to food, beverage, or specialty uses, while still allowing for a broad range of other commercial applications.

The lease is structured as modified gross, with the tenant responsible for their portion of utilities. The landlord is willing to consider a build-to-suit arrangement for the right tenant, with tenant-specific improvements and build-out costs negotiated into the lease structure and base rent.

Key Highlights

  • Approximately 2,000 SF downtown Alma commercial space (Unit B) on the north side of the building, available for lease.
  • Build‑to‑suit option available; tenant‑specific improvements and build‑out costs would be negotiated into the lease structure and base rent.
