The ground-floor medical office space at 18 East 13th Street offers a rare opportunity to establish a practice in one of Manhattan’s most energetic and high-traffic corridors, situated between Fifth Avenue and University Place in the heart of Greenwich Village and just steps from Union Square. Arriving at the storefront, a tenant is immediately met with a wide, open layout that stretches deep into the floorplate, providing uninterrupted visibility from the entrance all the way to the rear of the space. High ceilings rise to approximately ten feet, creating a sense of volume that works exceptionally well for retail display, gallery installations, experiential concepts, or medical and wellness practices requiring an open and flexible environment. The floorplan begins with a generous front area ideal for primary merchandising, reception, product staging, or customer engagement; its width allows multiple layout strategies without sacrificing circulation or sightlines.

As the space extends further inward, the depth of the ground floor becomes one of its strongest functional advantages. Businesses needing distinct zones for private consultation rooms, treatment suites, or back-of-house functions will find ample room to create a thoughtful, efficient workflow. The interior footprint supports several perimeter rooms along the sidewalls should a tenant wish to build offices, exam rooms, meeting rooms, or inventory storage. The long linear configuration lends itself equally well to fashion, beauty, boutique fitness, specialty retail, and showroom-driven brands that benefit from open floor plans and a smooth transition between customer-facing and operational areas. The rear portion of the ground floor easily accommodates a stockroom, staff area, or additional workspace while still leaving substantial square footage for front-of-house activity.

A newly constructed ADA-compliant bathroom is planned as part of the landlord’s white-box delivery, alongside new HVAC units and a powerful 400 AMP electrical service, giving incoming tenants the infrastructure required for both standard retail operations and more specialized uses such as health and wellness, cosmetic services, or medical consultation. The space can be vented, further expanding opportunities for food, beverage, or specialized retail requiring mechanical exhaust. From the ground floor, an internal stairway accesses the lower-level area, which offers an additional portion of dry space perfectly suited for storage, staff rooms, treatment areas, or back-office administrative functions. The lower level allows a business to maintain a clean and open presentation on the main floor while relocating essential support functions below.

Positioned in a location that sees approximately four hundred thousand pedestrians per day and supported by more than one hundred thousand nearby office workers and ninety thousand college students, the visibility and foot-traffic potential of this address are unmatched. The proximity to the Union Square subway complex—serving tens of millions annually—further strengthens the appeal for any brand seeking steady exposure and seamless access. Delivered in white-box condition with significant mechanical upgrades, the retail suite at 18 East 13th Street provides a blank canvas for a business to shape according to its identity and operational needs.
