Property Details

  • Property Type Retail - Street Retail
  • Property Size 3,500 SF
  • Lot Size 0.08 Acre
  • Date Updated Jun 26, 2026
Harrisonburg anchors the central Shenandoah Valley along Interstate 81, the primary north-south corridor of western Virginia. The market combines a large university population, a diversified employment base, and a steady residential trade area, with East Market Street serving as its principal retail corridor.This site sits along Harrisonburg’s East Market Street, the primary retail corridor of the city and home to the largest concentration of the market’s national retail tenants. Commuter traffic funneled between Interstate 81 to the north and Rockingham County to the south supply this frontage with approximately 29,000 vehicles per day. The site is only minutes away from the area’s main office concentration and James Madison University, the city’s largest educational institution and strongest economic driver, ensuring a reliable customer base is present year-round. With the shrinking availability of developable frontage along the East Market St corridor, this site offers a rare opportunity to develop without the burden of usage restrictions as well as flexible delivery between a 2,400 square foot drive-thru option or a 3,500 square foot multi-tenant option that includes QSR space with an additional retail bay.

1870 E Market 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.

    The rent for retail space at 1870 E Market St is available upon request. Feel free to reach out using the contact form conveniently included on this page to find out more about what the property can offer for your business.

  • The property includes 3,500 square feet of retail space for lease. Of this total, 3,500 square feet are Retail.

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

  • 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.
