Brooklyn landlords keep making this mistake…
Everybody wants a restaurant tenant until the buildout costs, ventilation issues, and liquor license problems start.
Meanwhile, some of the smartest operators in Brooklyn right now are opening businesses built around community:
• children’s enrichment
• wellness concepts
• tutoring programs
• creative studios
• movement spaces
And honestly… this stretch of Bed-Stuy is starting to demand more of that.
870 Dekalb Ave is a rare ground floor opportunity with approximately 2,000 SF, 2 bathrooms, an eat-in kitchen, and the ability to expand up to 4,000 SF by combining the neighboring storefront.
This isn’t just another retail box.
This is the kind of space a business can actually grow into and become part of the neighborhood.
Question is:
What kind of business do YOU think Bed-Stuy needs more of right now?
