Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This 4,992 +/- SF multi-level bar and restaurant building includes a first-floor bar with a small kitchen. The second floor features an additional bar with a stage area, suitable for live entertainment or events. The third floor is currently in shell condition, offering an unfinished level that may be finished to fit an operator’s needs. The property is offered for sale as 259-61 S 15th St, also known as McGlinchey’s.

The site is zoned CMX-5. The offering is presented for bar/restaurant operators or for potential redevelopment, given the existing vertical configuration and the third-floor shell level.

For buyers evaluating concepts that require multiple guest levels, the current layout supports an operator seeking separate bar areas and a dedicated stage on the second floor. Alternatively, the shell-condition third floor provides a build-out opportunity for additional seating, service space, or other program elements consistent with the property’s zoning. The first-floor kitchen support and existing bar setup can help streamline a hospitality use compared with starting from a vacant single level.
