310 E 126th St
New York, NY 10035
Retail Property For Sale

310–314 E 126th Street presents a rare opportunity to acquire a true automotive-use asset in the heart of Harlem, offering an existing Certificate of Occupancy for both auto repair and auto body work. This specialization, often difficult to secure in Manhattan, allows an investor or owner-operator to step into a fully functional environment with the option to include existing spray booths, equipment, and shop infrastructure in the sale. The property’s current configuration makes it immediately usable for a range of automotive services while also providing flexibility for repositioning aligned with industrial, creative production, or light-manufacturing demand in Upper Manhattan.
Located just off the FDR Drive and minutes from the Harlem River Drive, the 3rd Avenue Bridge, the Triborough Bridge, and even the George Washington Bridge, the site benefits from exceptional vehicular connectivity. This accessibility supports strong customer draw, streamlined fleet movement, and last-mile distribution possibilities. The broader Harlem submarket continues to evolve with residential density, retail growth, and municipal investment, creating a dynamic environment for commercial operators seeking proximity to both Midtown and the Bronx.
Adding meaningful long-term value, the offering includes approximately 7,500 square feet of unused air rights, enhancing future development flexibility within the M1-2 zoning designation and 2.0 FAR. Investors can explore vertical expansion, hybrid industrial-mixed-use concepts, or hold for future redevelopment as the surrounding corridor continues to modernize.
Whether pursued as an auto-use turnkey facility, an investment with expansion potential, or a strategic industrial foothold in Manhattan, 310–314 E 126th Street stands out as a versatile, well-located property with unique characteristics seldom available in this submarket.
