Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

Located in downtown Poughkeepsie, this offering includes a multi-family property and two adjoining vacant parcels, suitable for immediate income and future development. The existing multi-family structure contains large residential units with rental potential, presenting a value-add investment opportunity. Renovations could generate cash flow while providing a strategic hold for future expansion. The two vacant parcels create an assemblage that allows for redevelopment possibilities, such as expanding the current building, constructing new residential units, or creating a mixed-use concept. Situated within the MU-5 (Mixed-Use 5) zoning district, the property allows for multi-family residential development, retail, office, and service-based uses, with the potential for up to 5 stories (with bonus height opportunities up to 7 stories). The location is near the business district, courthouse, and train station. The zoning supports multiple development strategies, offering the opportunity to create scale with adjacent parcels. This property is suited for an investor or developer looking to combine immediate income with long-term upside in an active growth area.

Key Highlights

  • Rare opportunity to acquire a multi‑family property with two adjoining vacant parcels in downtown Poughkeepsie.
  • Significant redevelopment potential due to the combined parcels and flexible MU‑5 zoning.
  • Existing multi‑family structure offers immediate income and value‑add potential through renovations.
