Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This three-story mixed-use property is positioned at the intersection of Franklin Avenue and South 5th Street in downtown Waco. The existing building is configured as a leasable office asset, while its layout supports a different approach: storefront retail could occupy the ground floor, with office or residential redevelopment considered for the second and third floors.

The property sits between the Federal and County courthouses and is surrounded by food, beverage, and entertainment retailers. Franklin Avenue and South 5th Street provide access through downtown, with the latter serving as a connection between two primary entertainment districts. Parking includes a gated on-site area, supplemented by street parking and public garage parking near the intersection.
