Is there a special term for homes that are zoned for retail?

In my town, residential (2-4 units) above a ground floor shop is very common.", "replies": [{"id": "fpowdak", "text": "Oh no I wouldn\u2019t be occupying it.

I think removing \u201chome\u201d from your search can help, or reach out to a local broker.", "replies": [], "depth": 3}], "depth": 2}], "depth": 1}, {"id": "fpoyxhm", "text": "It\u2019s all about zoning, so yes, those exist - they are still just retail buildings. Confirm the zoning fits your use. \n\nIt will almost without doubt be cost prohibitive to retrofit a drive-thru and I imagine you\u2019ll have significant challenges laying out the site for appropriate stacking and traffic patterns. You\u2019d be much better off forgoing a drive-thru all together or looking for a dark restaurant. The latter is an expensive endeavor, but so is adding a drive-thru. Is it an absolute must for your business? Can you not just do curbside pick up instead?", "replies": [], "depth": 1}, {"id": "fpqjgr2", "text": "Go to your city\u2019s gis map.", "replies": [], "depth": 1}]
