New ownership is repositioning 840 The City Drive South and re-introducing retail to this well-located City Drive corridor property. After evaluating a potential multifamily redevelopment, ownership has elected to retain and activate the existing retail configuration, creating a rare opportunity for restaurant and service users in a supply-constrained submarket.
The property offers multiple suites suitable for food and beverage concepts, with existing restaurant infrastructure in place including coolers, freezers, hoods, and a grease trap (availability and condition to be verified). This significantly reduces startup time and capital costs for incoming operators.
Situated within Orange’s established medical, institutional, and office corridor, the property benefits from strong daytime population, consistent traffic counts, and immediate access to SR-22, I-5, and I-57 freeways. The surrounding area is anchored by major healthcare facilities, professional offices, and nearby universities, providing a built-in customer base.
The ownership’s focus is on bringing vibrant neighborhood-serving retail back to the property and working with qualified tenants to create long-term value. Ideal uses include restaurant, quick-service food, café, and service-oriented retail.
