Signalized Corner Redevelopment Opportunity

Building description

PRIME LA MESA PAD REDEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY

DUHS Commercial is pleased to present this opportunity to establish your retail brand at a high-volume, signalized intersection in the heart of La Mesa. Located at 6970-6990 University Ave, this unique +/- 0.70-acre (+/-30,492 SF) property is primed for a redevelopment. The existing structures can be cleared to pave the way for a modern drive-thru pad or multi-tenant retail buildings, making it an absolute hotspot for high-demand concepts like fast-food QSRs, EV Charging, coffee drive-thrus , convenience stores, gas stations, or boutique retail strips. Positioned perfectly in a densely populated, high-traffic retail corridor between Interstate 8 and State Route 94, this site delivers the visibility, ease of access, and stellar demographics required to fuel long-term commercial success.

Building highlights

  • High-Impact Redevelopment Canvas: A sprawling +/- 30,492 SF corner lot offering the flexibility to build 1–2 customized retail pads, drive-thrus, or a modern c-store/gas station layout.
  • Exceptional Traffic & Exposure: Commanded by a heavily trafficked, signalized intersection boasting +/- 39,609 combined daily vehicles (+/- 22,087 on University Ave and +/-17,522 on 70th St).
  • Strategic Mid-Corridor Location: Perfectly centered in a high-density residential and commercial zone, strategically situated right between two of San Diego’s major commuter arteries: Interstate 8 and Highway 94.
  • Thriving Retail Synergy: Nestled adjacent to a high-performing mix of national and regional neighbors—including 7-Eleven, Jack in the Box, Wienerschnitzel, and Better Buzz Coffee—ensuring a steady, built-in stream of consumer cross-traffic.
  • Flexible Footprint Options: Maximizes land utility by replacing the old +/- 5,333 SF multi-building footprint with optimized, modern retail designs geared for high-volume drive-thru efficiency.
