This first-floor unit at 71 Washington Avenue in Wallabout is a commercial rental, but it’s a cool space in a good location. You could do plenty with the 2,800 square feet on offer, and we could see the interior simply being left as it is for something like a gallery space. The location, between Park and Flushing avenues, is gritty, but the enormous Navy Green development nearby is sure to bring more foot traffic to the area. The asking rent is $4,250/month. Any commercial real estate pros care to weigh in on that number?

This is a commercial space, so we are talking about tenancy by a small business or manufacturing concern. Not joint work/live artist space. That is a very special use group and I don’t think this area has that option.
