 The Heironimus building in downtown Roanoke is on the market.

Cushman & Wakefield | Thalhimer said Monday that it will serve as the exclusive sales representative for the 80,000-square-foot building, one of the last and largest remaining significant redevelopment opportunities in Roanoke’s downtown historic district.  

“We are extremely excited to take this unique opportunity to the market and believe that it will be very attractive to both the local and statewide adaptive reuse and tax credit development community. The building is located in the heart of downtown Roanoke along the city’s innovation corridor and is positioned for the next wave of mixed use development,” Thalhimer’s John K. Nielsen said in a statement.

The five-story, brick, steel and concrete building at 401 S. Jefferson St. was constructed in 1915. The property sits on the southwest corner of Church and Jefferson and is within walking distance of the area’s main core of office space, restaurants and boutique retail establishments.

It’s also close to several of the area’s major employers as well as the Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine and Research Institute, the Jefferson College of Health Sciences and Radford University graduate programs.
