Property Description

855-857 East Main Street, Bridgeport, CT, is a 7,644 sq ft historic commercial building set on a 2,574 sq ft lot in the city's East Main Street Historic District-a vibrant late-Victorian corridor shaped by the vision of P.T. Barnum. Built in 1904, the property features distinctive period architecture, prominent street frontage, and steady pedestrian and vehicle traffic. Its prime location places it within walking distance of major landmarks such as the Barnum Museum, Fairfield County Courthouse, and M&T Bank's regional headquarters, and it offers quick access to I-95, Route 8/25, and the Bridgeport Transportation Center for Metro-North and Amtrak service. The surrounding area is in the midst of substantial investment, including the $1 billion Steelpointe Harbor waterfront redevelopment and the new Honey Locust Square retail and community complex, both of which are attracting new restaurants, retail, and cultural destinations to the neighborhood.
