Overview

1708 W University Avenue offers approximately 1,300 square feet of retail space designed for customer-facing use. The tenant area includes an outdoor patio that can support additional seating or customer space, which can be useful for both retail concepts and conventional restaurant operations.

The space is located in The Village adjacent to Ball State University, benefiting from vehicle and pedestrian traffic generated by the university, nearby businesses, and surrounding residential neighborhoods. Additional nearby redevelopment activity includes a new Cantio Hotel and the university’s new performing arts center, both nearing completion.

This location can work well for operators seeking a Village retail or restaurant environment with direct outdoor seating options and consistent foot traffic tied to the university and area businesses. The patio provides flexibility for concepts that benefit from an expanded customer experience beyond the interior space.
