    Overview

    This historic redevelopment opportunity dates to 1900 and offers a substantial 16,586 SF floor plan within a 9,148 SF parcel footprint. The original structure reflects significant architecture from its era, and the building is described as requiring tender loving care. The offering is positioned as a redevelopment canvas for buyers looking to renovate, reconfigure, or repurpose the space for their intended operating concept.

    Located at 159 Alexander Street in Rochester, NY 14607, the property is presented in the heart of Downtown Rochester, at the crossroads of Alexander and Broadway Street. The remarks also indicate the site is within an opportunity zone and mention potential state and federal tax credits. Interstate access is also noted as nearby, supporting access considerations for commercial operations.

    With the property framed as suitable for owner-users and commercial operators, the building’s size and historic layout may appeal to those pursuing a distinctive, hands-on project. The current condition suggests it will require renovation before occupancy, but the space is marketed as adaptable to a range of redevelopment directions, including a rejuvenated place of worship, apartments, a self-storage facility, or another commercial enterprise. Prospective buyers should evaluate final feasibility for their intended use in relation to the property’s R-2 zoning and redevelopment requirements.
