Description:

Solid, well-designed church and rectory on a massive 3.5 acres parcel on a corner with a traffic signal. The rectory was built in 1916 and has hardwood floors throughout. Plaster walls and ceilings are all in excellent condition. Beautiful wood trims and stair balusters add a nice finishing touch on this remarkable 5,718 square foot rectory building.
The church was built in 1969 and is not a traditionally shaped church structure. The first-floor measures 7,408 square feet and has a wide-open floor plan with 16-foot-high ceilings and unusual, durable, stucco walls. Downstairs is also 7,408 square feet and includes a kitchen, a large bingo hall, as well as the mechanical rooms.
The buildings and the site can easily be retrofit into an office use, medical use, housing, or mixed use. The city recently rezoned the area to a Transit Oriented Development zone and is recommending a realignment of Newington Avenue. The TOD zone encourages multi-family development, along with mixed use.
Bring your ideas to this rare opportunity. The city is looking forward to working with you.
