High-Visibility Corner Storefront | 1,900 SF | Chicago Ave & California | Turnkey Retail Build-Out
Building description
Prime ground-floor retail opportunity on one of Chicago's most trafficked west side corridors. This 1,900 SF storefront sits at the intersection of Chicago Avenue and California Avenue in Humboldt Park — a hard corner location with over 24,000 vehicles per day and strong pedestrian flow from the surrounding residential neighborhood.
The space delivers an existing retail build-out with high ceilings, polished concrete floors, and floor-to-ceiling storefront windows that flood the interior with natural light and maximize street visibility. The open floor plan is move-in ready and adaptable — ideal for a restaurant, café, boutique, fitness studio, medical office, or service-oriented concept.
Humboldt Park continues to attract independent operators and first-time business owners drawn by below-market rents, a built-in neighborhood customer base, and improving commercial activity along the California Corridor. This is an opportunity to secure a high-exposure corner before the next lease cycle tightens options in the area.
Available for lease at $22/SF/YR NNN or for purchase — inquire for sale pricing and terms. Ownership is motivated and open to discussing tenant improvement allowances for qualified operators.
