ZJBV Properties is pleased to present The Higgins Armory at 100 Barber Avenue to the market as a stabilized, income-generating investment opportunity. The 42,000-square-foot flex commercial suites building sits on 2.8 acres and spans four stories plus a mezzanine and sub-level floor.
100 Barber Avenue, the former Higgins Armory Museum, is a historical landmark in the city of Worcester, Massachusetts, listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The unique construction elements, conceived by John Woodman Higgins, were developed to achieve a practical and beautiful structure adapted from the construction of single-story industrial/mill buildings to showcase modern materials and artistic elements. Since its opening in 1931, the building has been an integral part of the Worcester landscape, serving as a museum and office building since its inception.
Located in the Greendale area of the city and sited with prominent highway visibility, the building has been an important part of the city's skyline and offers a unique opportunity for preservation or redevelopment. The property's convenient location at the intersection of Interstates 290 and 190 makes it easily accessible from the Massachusetts Turnpike (Interstate 90), downtown Worcester, and its surrounding areas.
