Rare opportunity on iconic 9th Street in Philadelphia’s historic Italian Market. Welcome to 1015 S 9th Street, the former longtime home of Darigo Seafood, now available for the next visionary owner to make their mark in one of Philadelphia’s most storied commercial corridors. Located in the heart of the Italian Market, this three-story CMX-2 zoned mixed-use property offers unmatched visibility, foot traffic, and historic charm.
The first-floor retail space features a traditional glass storefront secured by a roll-down padlocked gate and is in turnkey condition. Formerly used for seafood sales, it includes negotiable equipment such as ice machines, a walk-in refrigerator box, sorting tables, and other business fixtures, making it ideal for a new owner-operator or creative retail concept. The layout is open and flexible, perfect for capturing the energy and pedestrian activity of the market.
Access to the second and third floors is currently through a pull-down aluminum ladder, similar to accessing attic space. These upper levels were once a residential unit for the business owner but are now raw, undeveloped space in need of renovation. The CMX-2 zoning allows for a wide range of uses, including residential, office, or extended commercial space, giving the next owner flexibility and opportunity to reimagine the property.
The Italian Market is not only a Philadelphia institution but a national destination known as the oldest continuously operating outdoor market in the country. This stretch of 9th Street is alive with local vendors, longtime residents, tourists, and film history, famously featured in the Rocky series. The location benefits from constant foot traffic and a deep cultural identity that draws new businesses and customers alike.
Positioned within walking distance to Center City and close to neighborhoods like Bella Vista, Passyunk Square, Queen Village, and Washington Square West, the property is also well-connected by public transportation and major commuter routes. Whether you're an investor or an entrepreneur looking to plant your flag in one of the city’s most vibrant and visible locations, 1015 S 9th Street offers a rare chance to be part of a legacy location with future upside.
