Overview

This light commercial storefront is a solid, single building with an approximately 1,200+ square foot interior that was previously operated as a neighborhood convenience store. The space offers a functional layout and flexible configuration that can support different business formats, including retail, professional offices, personal services, or a mixed-use concept. The overall structure is described as sound, providing a foundation for customization to match a new operator’s needs.

Located at 739 S 16th St in Baton Rouge, the property sits in an established, historically developed area near the Downtown East corridor. The listing notes proximity to the Government St corridor and access to I-10, which can be helpful for tenants seeking connectivity to surrounding markets and nearby residential and commercial activity.

With C-1 (Light Commercial) zoning, the building is positioned for neighborhood-focused uses. That makes it a practical fit for small business owners and service-based operators looking for a versatile storefront space in a central corridor. Businesses that benefit from a storefront presence and adaptable interior planning may find the existing convenience store base a useful starting point for tenant improvements and concept changes.
