About 207 W Arch Avenue
The redevelopment of the Sowell Furniture building represents the most significant adaptive reuse opportunity in downtown Searcy. Positioned as a "Renovation Revolution," this project offers investors a chance to enhance the city’s $93 million #MySearcy master plan which includes bike trails, community center and waterpark. This 28,000+ square foot historic landmark is located directly across from the oldest courthouse in Arkansas and within walking distance of Art Alley and the Rialto Theatre. Ground Floor (Dining & Culture): A 14,000 sq. ft. open-concept footprint ideal for a flagship restaurant designed for all ages, filling a critical gap in Searcy’s downtown "Experience Economy." Upper Level (Entertainment & Nightlife): Another 14,000 sq. ft. dedicated space for live music, bands, and high-end arcade features, designed to capture the growing student and young professional demographic. Currently ranked as the #8 fastest-growing city in Arkansas, Searcy lacks a combined dining and activity venue of this scale, ensuring a "first-mover" advantage for the developer and includes ample parking. Let's get started on making this happen.
