219 N Columbus St Listing Brief

  • A property’s location contributes to the asking rent almost as much as its characteristics do. For instance, central urban locations with high walkability or suburban locations with ample parking and easy access by car will claim higher rents but offer superior access to your customer base. Likewise, the quality of the building systems and property finishes have a significant impact on how businesses can conduct their activity there, as well as on the experience of their customers.

    Retail space at The Shumaker asks $20.00/SF/YR per square foot.

  • The property includes 22,412 square feet of retail space for lease. Of this total, 22,412 square feet are Retail.

    Lease agreement conditions for the availability at this property include NNN.

    For more information or to schedule a tour of the property, use the convenient contact form on this page to get in touch with a representative.

  • You should keep in mind that different areas gradually build a reputation as hotspots or desirable corridors for shopping, eating, or other entertainment and consumer activities. So, while renting retail space in an area with a well-established high-end reputation might mean more customers that are more willing to spend, it will also place you in a more competitive environment.
