Renting Retail Space in Union Market / Ivy City

Union Market has evolved from an industrial wholesale hub into D.C.’s "Creative Heart." The submarket is a magnet for "character-driven" office space, where authentic warehouse conversions are commanding premium rents from innovative tech and media firms (Source: Brexton CRE). It is currently seeing a surge in Infill Industrial demand, with the nearby Ivy City emerging as the only area in the District for "last-mile" logistics—assets currently considered "gold dust" due to their extreme scarcity (Source: Brexton CRE / Commercial Property Executive 2026 Trends). 2026 is the year of "Gallaudet University / 6th Street" maturation. As major mixed-use projects adjacent to the campus deliver, the Union Market district will expand southward, creating a seamless high-density corridor that blends academic innovation with retail and high-end residential.
