Historic McKowen Store Building

Overview

The Historic McKowen Store Building (ca. 1835) is a rare opportunity to acquire or lease a historic commercial property located in the heart of downtown Jackson, Louisiana. Situated along Charter Street, the town’s historic commercial corridor, the property is part of the Jackson Historic District, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The building contains approximately ±4,500 square feet across the basement and first floor, with an additional ±1,500 square feet of attic space that could potentially be converted into additional office, retail, or creative space. The lower level previously operated as a restaurant, while the upper level has been used as an art gallery and flexible event space. The property also features outdoor patio areas beneath mature oak trees, providing a unique setting for hospitality, retail, or creative uses. The building’s historic character, flexible layout, and prominent location along Charter Street provide a distinctive opportunity within one of the most well-preserved historic town centers in the Florida Parishes region of Southeast Louisiana.
