Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
1914 W 79th Street is a freestanding 3,712 SF former national quick-service restaurant built in 2005 on a 0.51-acre corner site. The property is configured as a drive-thru pad with a dedicated parking field and dual ingress/egress, including proper drive-thru lane stacking depth. The building is offered vacant and ready for operator build-out or net-lease repositioning under a triple-net (NNN) structure.
The site includes a commercial kitchen with three hoods and Ansul fire suppression systems, black iron, four walk-in coolers and freezers, and multiple grease traps. The original drive-thru lane infrastructure is intact, supporting second-generation use for a QSR or other drive-thru-dependent retail or healthcare operator.
The property sits along Chicago’s 79th Street commercial corridor at a signalized intersection, providing visibility and direct access. Nearby retail includes the Auburn Gresham Healthy Hub anchored by Bank of America and UI Health, plus a Dunkin’ located at 207 W 79th Street, with Burger King and Popeyes approximately 0.8 and 1.3 miles away, respectively. The highest and best use is continued drive-thru restaurant operation, with alternative drive-thru-dependent concepts also supported by the existing configuration.
