317-319 N main street bloom Bloomington, IL 61701

This historic mixed-use building is located in the heart of Downtown Bloomington, Illinois. The property features two separate first-floor commercial suites, each offering 2,376 sq.ft. of space with independent frontage. The upper floors have been opened into larger single-floor plates and are vacant, presenting an opportunity for redevelopment into office, creative, or loft-style residential spaces, subject to buyer verification of approvals. A rear egress supports a mixed-use strategy. The basement provides storage and houses mechanical systems. Interior features include stamped tin ceilings ready for restoration and a decommissioned elevator shaft that may offer vertical-circulation potential, pending buyer evaluation. Constructed in 1901 following a fire, the building was designed by Arthur Pillsbury. Past tenants included Payless Drugs (1940), Illinois Power (1935) which upgraded the power to 1600 amp electrical service, Post Amerikan, and Park-Stoutamoyer & Associates. The property is located blocks from the McLean County Museum of History on the Courthouse Square and within walking distance of the McLean County Courthouse and Square and the Bloomington Central Business District, both National Register anchors. The City established the Downtown TIF District (July 22, 2024) to support redevelopment and advance the Downtown for Everyone streetscape initiative, which is currently underway. The property size is 19,008 sq.ft.
