Description

Formerly the Expo School, 1410 Independence Ave presents a rare opportunity for adaptive reuse. Now vacant and ready for its next chapter, the property offers substantial square footage with numerous classrooms and flexible spaces, a full gymnasium, and an auditorium with balcony seating features that are increasingly difficult and costly to replicate today. Mechanical infrastructure includes two functioning boilers. While there is no central air, many rooms are equipped with window A/C units. The layout and scale make this property well-suited for institutional, community, educational, nonprofit, office, or other specialty uses. Centrally located in Waterloo and offered at $499,900.
