Description:

RealINSIGHT Marketplace, in partnership with Marcus & Millichap, is pleased to present the Crescent Building, a 16,600 SF historic three-story mixed-use property at 3466-3478 University Avenue in Downtown Riverside, California. Built in 1910 and situated on an 11,761 SF lot zoned C3, the building comprises ground-floor retail, upper-floor office space, and a basement, with soaring ceilings of 15 to 30 feet and significant architectural character. Preliminary redevelopment plans are fully approved through the Planning Department and approximately 50% complete through Building & Safety, with the remaining work limited to mortar testing and final structural seismic reinforcement engineering. The estimated remaining budget to reach full entitlement approval is approximately $115,000, inclusive of consultant contract balance, required testing, and a 10–15% contingency — providing incoming ownership with a clearly defined and costed path to execution. All current tenants are on month-to-month leases, offering maximum flexibility for repositioning, owner-user occupancy, or conversion to mixed-use residential, boutique hotel, creative office, or restaurant uses. The property is one block from the Mission Inn Hotel & Spa and proximate to Riverside City Hall, the Convention Center, and the 91 Freeway.
