305 Eighth Street - The Long Building

Meybohm Commercial is pleased to exclusively present a historic 23,664 SF property on Eight Street in Augusta, GA. Originally built in the 1880s as a carriage and harness fabrication facility adjacent to a grocery store, the site is ideal for adaptive reuse, including retail, apartments, or office conversion. The building currently houses two 3,912 SF storefronts—“Afficionados” and “Humanitree House”—and offers excellent potential for historic tax credit renovations.

The property features heart pine floors, tongue-and-groove ceilings, masonry exterior walls, pitched and recently recoated roofs, a freight elevator, and a recently installed fire sprinkler system (not yet connected). A 10’ rear alley provides access to the back of the building, and the Board of Education parking deck offers public parking from 5 PM to 8 AM for tenants and visitors. Approximately half of the second floor and the entire third floor have been gutted, offering a flexible canvas for redevelopment.

Located in the heart of Augusta’s Eighth Street corridor, between Broad and Greene Streets near Augusta Commons—home to major events such as Arts in the Heart, Westobou Arts Festival, and the Hispanic Festival—this property sits amid significant growth. Nearby developments include the $94 million Augusta Railroad Depot redevelopment and the $111 million Georgia Cyber Center project. Situated in an Opportunity Zone, the property is eligible for special tax incentives, making it a prime location for investors seeking historic and high-visibility redevelopment opportunities.
