5401 Pan American Freeway Northeast

Rarely does a development opportunity of this caliber come to market. Situated at the signalized intersection of Interstate 25 and Jefferson Street, this 2.70-acre pad-ready parcel sits at the center of Albuquerque's most active restaurant and retail corridor — with direct I-25 frontage and 157,300 vehicles passing daily.

The site is surrounded by proven, high-volume national operators including Pappadeaux Seafood Kitchen ($7.1M in annual sales), Bubba's 33 ($9.3M), Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen ($7.5M), Tula's Kitchen, Topgolf, Revel Entertainment, and New Mexico's largest Cinemark 24-screen theater. A cross-access easement is already in place connecting the parcel to adjacent restaurants and an office park, and NR-BP zoning supports a wide range of commercial uses including dining, hospitality, and medical.

The 5-mile trade area delivers 204,612 daytime workers and an average household income of $105,334 — an exceptionally strong consumer base for food-and-beverage or service-oriented concepts. Major interchange improvements at Montgomery Blvd and I-25 will be completed in Spring 2027, further enhancing access and visibility.

Albuquerque serves as New Mexico's commercial hub with over 1 million people within a 60-minute drive of the I-25/I-40 interchange, a cost-of-living index of 98.7 (below the national average), and a diverse, educated workforce. The city has been recognized as one of the top 25 emerging markets for tech talent and one of the best cities for outdoor recreation in the country.
