Main - 79 KING Street
Hamilton, Ontario
2,250 sqft • Retail
Raw building shell awaiting a new vision! Located right in the heart of Hamilton, on the north side of Gore Park, this building has been gutted to the structure. The large new south-facing windows and door ensure plenty of natural light floods into the two-storey tall front section of the building, making the space look very large. A small second floor overlooks the storefront. The third floor is inaccessible, but could be developed into residential space. The location is fantastic: situated in the very core of the central business district, steps from the courthouses, City Hall, restaurant row, transit, and everything else downtown has to offer! Over 10,000 new residential units are currently under development around this location as Hamilton's downtown continues to evolve. This spot is ideal for prime retail, hospitality (chic two-floor lounge anyone?), personal services, and much more! The landlord is a leading Hamilton developer and is open to ideas, creativity, and conversations about how the right tenant can bring this building back to life!
