146 E Main Street New Albany, IN
$410,000
16,640 SF

Situated between Main Street and the Ohio River. The main bldg, known as the Reisz Furniture Building is a 3 story brick with basement and a lot of windows. This building has drawn interest from those that do condo/apt conversion.

The main structure is likely the best to use for renovation offering 3 stories and a basement. Each floor is about 5280sf. The addition to the south would likely be removed to allow for private street level parking. There is plenty of City parking which is the lot to the south of the site.

The Riverfront Redevelopment District which, if you qualify, can allow you to secure a 3-way liquor license (beer, wine and liquor) for a mere $1000 a year. The license is not portable meaning it stays as long as the business stays and is transferable at the location its tied to.
