Executive Summary

Exceptional mixed-use opportunity, and a prime canvas for an investor or owner-operator, in one of the Lehigh Valley's most dynamic and rapidly appreciating corridors. 13-15 E. 3rd Street is a historic 3-story building in South Side Bethlehem offering ~17,350 SF total across commercial and potential residential space.
The building features three street-level entrances serving different portions of the building. Two commercial entrances provide access to the first floor, basement, second floor rear, and outdoor roof deck — all delivered as open shell and ready for tenant build-out. A third entrance serves the second floor front and third floor independently, for which zoning approval for 5 residential units transfers with the sale. The upper floors can alternatively be utilized as additional commercial space under Central Business Zoning.
Additional rooftop development potential. Ideally positioned steps from ArtsQuest, SteelStacks, the new Hilton Tempo Hotel, Wind Creek, and Lehigh University. Surrounded by multiple municipal parking garages and abundant street parking with direct I-78 access. One of the most active and high-traffic locations in the Lehigh Valley. Bring your vision!
