INVESTMENT HIGHLIGHTS
- Large-scale redevelopment opportunity on Broadway in Louisville’s Central Business District near $1.1 billion of planned projects.
- Potential for financial incentives as Kentucky has several commercial incentive programs to assist developers for qualifying projects.
- Seven-story, 451,000 square-foot former headquarters building is located on the corner of 6th and Broadway.
- Current ownership has recently completed the enormous task of removing vast amounts of materials from the campus.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The properties lie on the southwest corner of Louisville’s CBD and include 7.9 acres and 587,000 square feet of office space, warehouses, and surface parking. These unique properties are exceptional in size and ripe for one or many redevelopment projects. No other assemblage like this exists in Louisville’s Central Business District. The former office headquarters building on the west side of the property includes 451,000 square feet on seven floors. The warehouse spaces on the east side of the property total 136,000 square feet and include 16 docks and five small door docks. Ceiling heights range from 20 to 76 feet.
Louisville’s CBD neighborhood is undergoing a major transformation, making it an exciting time to invest in this prime location. The upcoming Motorworks development will bring 319 modern apartments to the former Brown Bros. Cadillac site, adding much-needed housing to the area. Just blocks away, the historic Louisville Gardens is set for a $70 million conversion into film and television soundstages, positioning the city as a rising hub for entertainment production. With new residential, commercial, and creative industry investments pouring into downtown, this property offers a unique opportunity to be part of Louisville’s next wave of growth.
Louisville is the economic focal point of north central Kentucky and the state’s largest metropolitan area. Positioned on the southeast bank of the Ohio River (which forms the Kentucky/Indiana state line), Louisville is 74 miles west of Lexington and 96 miles southwest of Cincinnati. Due to its location at the Falls of Ohio, Louisville has been an inland port and major trade center from its earliest days. Since 2014, Louisville has experienced more than $15 billion in investments in the city. According to BizJournals, the outlook for 2023 estimates that nearly 10,000 will be added jobs in the Louisville MSA. The Louisville metro added over 30K jobs in 2022.
