Rare 22,000-square-foot retail and showroom property in New Rochelle, New York, formerly home to a Harley-Davidson dealership, with unmatched highway access and strong regional visibility is available for purchase for the first time in 20 years through Choyce Peterson, Inc.
-- Choyce Peterson, Inc., a full-service commercial real estate brokerage and advisory firm, announced today that it has been retained as the exclusive sales agent for 8 Industrial Lane in New Rochelle, New York, a 22,000-square-foot retail/showroom property situated on 1.72 acres. Best known as the former Harley-Davidson dealership, the property represents one of the most prominent large-format retail opportunities to come on the market in Westchester County in recent years.
Located just three miles north of New York City and positioned between Costco and Home Depot, the property offers direct access to I-95 and Route 1. With its expansive showroom, on-site parking for 55 vehicles, and recently installed solar panels, the building is ideally suited for a wide range of potential users seeking visibility and convenience.
“This property has long been recognized as a landmark destination thanks to its history as a Harley-Davidson dealership,” said Scott C. Peterson, Vice President of Choyce Peterson. “Today, it presents a rare chance for a new owner to take advantage of its exceptional location, flexible showroom buildout, and strong market fundamentals. Whether the next chapter is automotive, fitness, retail, or another experiential use, this site is a canvas for a user who wants immediate regional reach.”
The building, originally constructed in 1954, features a modernized roof with solar panels installed in 2018/2019 that generate income by selling electricity back to the grid. Its three grade-level doors, loading dock, and adaptable interior layout provide both functionality and flexibility for new ownership.
New Rochelle itself is undergoing a wave of redevelopment, with more than $4 billion in mixed-use and residential projects underway. Since 2023, more than 1,800 new residential units have been delivered, with another 1,800+ in the pipeline, making the city one of the fastest-growing communities in Westchester County.
The property is further supported by strong demographics, including more than 6,800 households with incomes above $150,000 within the local trade area.
Key property highlights include:
- 22,000 SF building on 1.72 acres with showroom and service areas
- 55 on-site parking spaces with direct access to Weyman Avenue and Industrial Lane
- Solar panels generating income from electricity sales
- Prominent retail neighbors including Costco, Home Depot, LA Fitness, and self-storage facilities
- Exceptional accessibility: 0.4 miles to I-95, 0.2 miles to Route 1, and 3 miles to New York City
- An additional 8,000 SF of lower level space, ideal for storage
For businesses weighing lease versus purchase, Choyce Peterson’s analysis indicates that ownership at 8 Industrial Lane can deliver significant savings. Compared to renting similar showroom space at $28 per square foot, an owner-occupier at this property could save more than $130,000 annually.
