01About this home

Unique Downtown Urbana Mixed Use - Redevelopment Opportunity. Pleased to offer this well-located property on Race Street, currently home to Analog Wine Bar. The two-building, one- and two-story brick structure totals approximately 5,561 SF and sits on a .61 acre lot (effective usable site area of approximately 21,000 SF), with on-site parking for 25 vehicles and abundant nearby public parking. Constructed circa 1900 and thoughtfully updated, the property features a remodeled first floor with refinished concrete floors, high ceilings, updated mechanicals, electrical, plumbing, and a membrane roof. The ground level includes a coffee/wine bar, lounge, kitchen/prep area, event space, offices, restrooms, and access to a rear deck for outdoor use. The second floor (1,445 SF) is currently configured as office space and is well-suited for future residential or creative reuse with renovation. The property is zoned B-4 (Central Business), allowing for a wide range of high-density commercial uses including restaurant, retail, tavern, office, and upper-story residential. Directly adjacent and north of the property is multiple parcels owned by the City of Urbana and recently the buildings were demolished to make way for a large scale redevelopment project. The City of Urbana will be releasing a developer request for proposal in late spring 2026. 129 Race could be included in a developer project to increase the magnitude of a project.
