Property Description
7043 Ridge Avenue is a premier commercial and redevelopment opportunity located along Roxborough's primary retail corridor in Northwest Philadelphia. The 17,390 SF parcel, just steps from Domino Lane, qualifies as a top-tier development site with up to 37 residential units allowable by right, offering a clear, efficient path to execution in a high-demand neighborhood. The site's prominent Ridge Avenue frontage provides exceptional visibility, access, and daily traffic exposure. The property also presents a compelling end-user opportunity, having been home to Worldwide Aquarium & Pets for over 30 years, underscoring its long-standing viability as a neighborhood retail destination. The existing 5,785 SF retail building can continue as-is or be adaptively reused, with the added benefit of an on-site parking lot. The seller is relocating and willing to offer a short-term leaseback, allowing for income continuity while plans are finalized, making this a flexible and strategic acquisition for both investors and owner-users.
