Executive Summary
Marcus & Millichap presents the freestanding, 1,410-square-foot former vehicle service station at 116 N Central Avenue to the market.
Most recently used for gas station and auto body repair operations, the subject building is now available for a new auto mechanic/convenience store tenant or for redevelopment into various commercial uses. The building features a masonry concrete block construction, two drive-in bays, two large glass storefront display windows (currently boarded), and building signage.
116 N Central Avenue sits at the three-way intersection with Gertzen Plaza, exposed to more than 7,100 daily passing vehicles. The rear of the building faces the Ramsey train station tracks, which provide routes in and out of New York City. Shopping destinations nearby include the Interstate Shopping Center, anchored by ShopRite, T.J. Maxx, and Michaels, Triangle Plaza, anchored by 24 Hour Fitness and Uncle Giuseppe’s Marketplace, and Lincoln Plaza, home to various national names and franchises.
Suburban retail markets within the New York Metro are tightening, particularly in Northern New Jersey. These hubs benefit from strong household incomes and consistent consumer spending, and availability has fallen more sharply since the start of the year than in some parts of the urban core. 116 N Central Avenue offers a rare retail commodity in a high-barrier-to-entry market, serving a robust consumer base with more than $2.4 billion in annual spending power.
