Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This for-sale offering combines two parcels, including a main building described as an empty canvas and an adjoining lot for outdoor expansion. The building area is listed as 1,904 square feet, and the combined total site size is stated as 11,342 square feet. The configuration supports a range of redevelopment approaches, whether the plan is to renovate the existing structure, add new improvements, or use the additional lot for usable outdoor space.

The property is located in New Orleans’ Lower Ninth Ward in Orleans Parish, at 5609-17 Marais Street (ZIP 70117). The listing also notes the HU-MU zoning designation, which may be relevant to how a buyer plans renovations, additions, or reuse of the combined site.

For buyers, investors, or developers looking for a two-parcel setup, this package can simplify assembling an on-site footprint for phased work or creative site planning. With the main building positioned as ready for customization and an extra lot included in the same sale, the property offers a practical foundation for redevelopment strategies that benefit from both structure and land on the same combined footprint.
