Now Leasing High-Exposure Retail Space in Downtown Savannah
Positioned for Visibility. Built for Growth.
High-exposure downtown Savannah retail space on MLK Blvd delivering traffic, flexibility, and long-term brand presence without premium corridor pricing.
What makes 351 Martin Luther King Jr Blvd special is its positioning — this is true downtown frontage in Savannah’s active growth corridor without paying top-tier Broughton Street rates. With nearly 18,900 vehicles per day on MLK Blvd, strong pedestrian activity near SCAD, and constant flow from downtown residents, hotels, and tourism, this location delivers instant brand visibility and built-in demand. The ±1,810 SF single-tenant storefront gives you control — no in-building competition — and the cold dark shell allows you to design your concept exactly how you want it from day one. Zoned D-X (Downtown Mixed Use), it supports a wide range of retail and restaurant uses, making it flexible for evolving concepts. In a submarket with only 4.71% retail vacancy and lease rates ranging from $30–$60/SF, this is a competitively priced, high-exposure opportunity that checks the boxes for visibility, flexibility, and long-term staying power in downtown Savannah.
Designed for Concepts That Thrive on Visibility
Ideal for coffee, fast-casual, boutique retail, gallery, and service-based businesses looking to capture downtown Savannah traffic and SCAD-driven demand.
This ±1,810 SF downtown storefront is exceptionally well suited for experiential and lifestyle-driven concepts that thrive on visibility and foot traffic. A coffee or café concept can capitalize on morning commuter flow and steady SCAD activity, while a fast-casual restaurant benefits from downtown lunch demand and evening tourism. Boutique apparel, specialty retail, and curated gift shops gain strong branding exposure through large storefront windows along MLK Blvd. Art galleries or creative concepts aligned with SCAD naturally integrate into the surrounding design community, and service-based retail such as salons, wellness studios, or specialty fitness operators can establish a strong neighborhood presence with consistent daily traffic. With D-X zoning and a cold dark shell layout, the space offers the flexibility to bring a wide range of retail and restaurant visions to life in Savannah’s core market.

MLK Blvd also connects directly to the Historic District, Forsyth Park, and surrounding residential density, creating a natural flow between visitors, locals, and the downtown workforce.
