Prime ±10,000 SF Mixed-Use Riverfront Opportunity – South Waterfront District
Rarely does a building of this size, quality, and location hit the market in Knoxville.
The City of Knoxville is investing $19 million in the Sevier Avenue streetscape, adding wider sidewalks, a riverfront trail behind the building, pedestrian upgrades, a new roundabout, a pedestrian bridge from downtown (under construction), and an 80-space public parking lot.
Located in one of the fastest growing areas on the riverfront, just south of downtown in the thriving Riverfront South district, this ±10,000 freestanding property offers exceptional flexibility and upside in one of East Tennessee’s most dynamic growth corridors. Zoned C-3 (Light Industrial), the site allows for retail, office, creative space, light manufacturing, cold storage, showroom, event venue, micro-brewery, or virtually any mixed-use concept. Convenient freeway access enhances both visibility and accessibility.
The building offers two expansive patio areas, the front with roll-up garage doors, plus a rear deck extension opportunity overlooking the future walking trail —creating an ideal indoor/outdoor environment for a restaurant, taproom, or music venue.
With 25 climate-controlled rooms on the office side and a walk-in cooler on the industrial side, the property is also uniquely positioned for a mixed-use coworking and hospitality concept.
The office and retail suites require only minor cosmetic updates to be move-in ready, making the property well-suited for a law firm, HVAC or plumbing contractor, distribution, medical supply, design studio, or any professional service seeking a high visibility, strategically located headquarters or regional office.
Whether you’re an owner-user seeking the perfect headquarters, a developer hunting the ultimate adaptive-reuse opportunity, or an investor chasing strong, tax-advantaged cash flow in a supply-constrained submarket, this asset literally cannot be replicated today at any price. For investors with capital gains seeking a true tax-free vehicle (not just deferral) via an Opportunity Zone strategy, this is your move.
