EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Unlock the potential of this prominently located commercial property in the heart of Uphams Corner. Situated at 8–12 Hancock Street, this single-story brick building offers approximately 2,193 square feet of space, presenting a blank canvas for visionary investors and developers.
Key Features:

The area is earmarked for transformation into an Arts and Innovation district, aiming to boost affordable housing, commerce, and cultural activities.
• Community Engagement: Past redevelopment proposals, such as converting the site into a recreational marijuana dispensary, have highlighted the importance of community involvement. Future projects will benefit from proactive engagement with local civic associations to ensure alignment with neighborhood expectations and needs.
