Marketing description

SVN | Three Rivers Commercial Advisors is pleased to present the opportunity to acquire the development site located at 5242 Baum Boulevard in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The property consists of approximately 15,654 square feet of land across four contiguous parcels, with roughly 125 feet of frontage along Baum Boulevard. Formerly the site of Café Sam’s, this offering presents a strategic development opportunity in one of Pittsburgh’s most dynamic and evolving neighborhoods—Shadyside.


Positioned in close proximity to UPMC Shadyside Hospital, the Hillman Cancer Center, and within a short distance of both the University of Pittsburgh and Carnegie Mellon University, the site is ideally located within a corridor experiencing continued growth across healthcare, higher education, research, and technology. Additionally, the immediate area is highly walkable, with nearby access to retail and lifestyle amenities such as Whole Foods, Giant Eagle, Courtyard by Marriott, Hyatt House, and Morrow Park Apartments.


The property is currently zoned LNC (Local Neighborhood Commercial), allowing for a Floor Area Ratio of 2:1 and a maximum building height of 45 feet (three stories). Notably, adjacent properties are zoned UNC (Urban Neighborhood Commercial), which permits a higher FAR of 3:1 and building heights up to 85 feet (six stories), indicating potential for increased density through rezoning or assemblage strategies.


This site offers developers and investors a rare opportunity to establish a high-impact presence in a well-connected, high-demand area of the city. Its location, accessibility, and surrounding institutional anchors create a strong foundation for a wide range of development concepts, including mixed- use, multifamily, medical office, or hospitality.


Located in Shadyside.
