2026 MARTIN LUTHER KING JR AVENUE SE, WASHINGTON, DC 20020

$1,200,000

2026 Martin Luther King Jr. Ave SE is more than a property, it's a power position. This mixed-use property sits smack across the street from Anacostia's towering Big Chair, at the epicenter of movement, memory, and serious momentum. The building is zoned C2011;22011;A, allowing for retail, office, and residential use.… Read More The location is the value as the property requires a full renovation and is being sold strictly as-is for a creative commercial buildout, multi-unit configuration, or a hybrid of both. Two private parking spaces are located at the rear of the property, offering secure, off-street convenience in an area where parking is at a premium. This address falls within the Anacostia Historic District, so any exterior work may require Historic Preservation Office review. The buyer is responsible for confirming all permitting requirements related to alterations and fae7;ade work. Roughly 12,000 vehicles pass by the front door daily, bringing you a steady stream of commuters. This stretch of MLK Ave SE drives consistent daytime traffic and institutional stability with local culture like the Go-Go Museum & Cafe9;, Busboys and Poets, a popular legal dispensary next door, multiple banks, and government buildings. Anacostia is evolving into the city's next cultural and commercial axis, for those who understand timing and transformation, this is a rare opportunity to get in right before the next wave. And that wave is coming fast. The Anacostia Waterfront Initiative is planned to reshape the landscape bringing water taxis, green spaces, and public access to the river that will mirror the SW Waterfront. Nearby, the newly opened Cedar Hill Full Service Hospital at St.202f;Elizabeths anchors a multi-phase redevelopment that includes housing, retail, and jobs. Just a half mile away, the transformative 11th Street Bridge Park is set to open - D.C.'s first elevated public park - featuring a Hammock Grove, outdoor performance spaces, a cafe9;, and community gardens. Navy Yard's Phase II expansion is coming just a few miles away, adding 3,400 residences, 2M square feet of office, and 400K square feet of retail, pulling attention and energy east. Metro access is solid, walkable, and well-connected right by the property. This location offers seamless access via I-295, I-395, BW Parkway, and Suitland Parkway. 2026 MLK Ave SE isn't just in the path of progress. It's sitting on the launchpad. Read Less
