Prime Redevelopment Opportunity in Downtown Richmond

Located in the heart of Richmond’s vibrant Arts and Cultural District, 307 East Broad Street offers a rare opportunity to redevelop a historic three-story retail building in the City’s B-4 Central Business District. This 6,630-square-foot structure sits on a 0.083-acre parcel and is ready for transformation—ideal for a mix of retail, office, and residential uses.

Originally built in 1940, the building is offering creative flexibility for developers or owner-users. Although currently in shell condition, the property is a blank canvas for high-impact adaptive reuse or modern mixed-use redevelopment.

Zoned B-4, this property allows for unlimited building height, a minimum three-story requirement, and encourages dense, transit-oriented development. Ground-floor commercial use is required on major corridors like Broad Street, aligning perfectly with retail, dining, gallery, or boutique concepts—while upper floors can support residential or office uses.

Located within both a Richmond Enterprise Zone and a CARE Program District, this property may qualify for city incentives.
