About this home

Prime Redevelopment Opportunity | 5-Story, 4-unit mixed-use brick row house for sale. Absolutely stunning and unobstructed city views off the back of the property. With 6 levels including the sub-basement this building has a ton of upside development potential to be converted to condominiums. This highly desirable location offers the rare opportunity to buy into a beautiful brick building primed for rehab. Two off-street parking in the rear by way of a driveway easement off Emerson Street. 536 E Broadway was originally home to a family of 6 and the family-owned podiatrist office located on the first floor. The building will change hands for the first time in over 60 years. PLEASE NOTE: This is a legal 4-unit building (3 residential, 1 commercial office)
