8926-8928 N Lombard St 120 - 5,310 SF of Retail Space Available in Portland, OR 97203

Join a curated community of independent artisans, entrepreneurs, designers, and specialty retailers in this emerging “Maker Mini Mall” concept. Each private micro-suite offers approximately 120 SF with a full glass three-panel sliding storefront that opens wide to the shared corridor and café seating area. High 15-foot ceilings throughout the overall space provide an open, lively feel, while the suite partitions at 8 feet tall keep build-out costs low and maintain strong visual connectivity. These suites are ideal for artisans and entrepreneurs looking to establish a physical presence without the expense and long-term commitments of traditional retail. Whether you design apparel, create handcrafted goods, build custom products, or run a small brand that thrives online or at markets, this space gives you a dedicated storefront to showcase and sell your work. Offered as a simple flat $750 monthly rent with no NNN fees and lease terms as short as one year, this is a rare, low-barrier path into brick-and-mortar retail. Large exterior windows provide abundant daylight and enhance visibility, supporting a vibrant marketplace atmosphere that encourages browsing and traffic to all tenants. While this marketplace concept is the preferred direction for Space B, ownership is also open to alternative configurations, including a larger single-tenant layout for the right use.

Space A offers a prominent anchor position within a planned “Maker Mini Mall” concept currently in development. This ±1,400 SF space includes approximately 950 SF on the main level plus a 450 SF mezzanine that can support additional seating. The space will be delivered as a clean, modern vanilla shell with new HVAC, drywall, basic electrical, and lighting installed following lease execution and permitting. The layout is designed to blend seamlessly with a shared seating and community corridor that will connect nine glass-front micro-retail spaces throughout the rest of the floor. This is a unique opportunity for a coffee shop or café operator to shape the centerpiece of an emerging creative marketplace environment intended to drive daily foot traffic and encourage dwell time. Multiple planned customer entry points and flexible seating options support both grab-and-go service and a comfortable hang-out destination. Food-use friendly utilities can be planned to suit tenant requirements. Ownership is motivated to collaborate on design details that enhance the customer experience and create a standout destination for the community.

Space C offers an intimate yet high-impact ±850 SF corner location designed as the indoor bar and lounge for a planned outdoor food-cart pod directly adjacent to the building. A new doorway will open into a shared patio with seating for both bar guests and food-cart patrons, creating an easy indoor–outdoor flow and a lively community courtyard atmosphere. A roll-up glass door along the street-side façade adds transparency, fresh air, and the potential for additional sidewalk seating and street engagement. Generous high ceilings and abundant glass frontage make the space feel open and inviting—perfect for a small cocktail bar, craft-beer taproom, or neighborhood wine concept seeking a light-filled, flexible footprint. The bar space is also planned to connect internally with the Mini Maker Mall, a curated collection of micro-retail suites and a café anchoring the rest of the floor, offering built-in foot traffic and cross-over customers from the maker, retail, and food communities. Ownership is motivated to collaborate on design and timing to ensure smooth integration with the adjoining patio, food-cart courtyard, and maker-mall flow, helping to establish a standout neighborhood destination.

Space D offers a compact ±510 SF interior suite within the Mini Maker Mall, designed for tenants who value privacy, focus, and controlled lighting. While the space has no exterior windows, natural light enters through the glass front door vestibule and clerestory window, creating a soft, ambient glow that makes the space comfortable and usable for a variety of purposes. This suite is ideal for creative production, office, workshop, podcasting, photo or content studio, or specialized retail that benefits from a quiet, enclosed setting. High ceilings add volume and flexibility for display, storage, or light fabrication. As part of the Mini Maker Mall ecosystem—which includes a café, bar with food-cart patio, and micro-retail suites—Space D provides a private workspace connected to an active community of makers and entrepreneurs.
