2166 Field St Detroit, MI 48214

This offering from the Detroit Land Bank Authority features seven buildable lots in the Islandview neighborhood, located minutes from Belle Isle Park. The Detroit Land Bank Authority (DLBA) is issuing a Request for Proposals (RFP) for small- to medium-scale infill development, with the goal of increasing housing supply, restoring the urban fabric, and supporting greater density and walkability within the neighborhood. The parcels are zoned R2; however, higher-density proposals may be considered through a conditional use approval. Interested purchasers should review the DLBA proposal guidelines for new-build opportunities and submit a detailed project description with their proposal. The DLBA also recommends reviewing the Islandview Greater Villages Neighborhood Framework Plan prepared by the City of Detroit’s Planning and Development Department for additional neighborhood context. The DLBA is entitled to a tax capture for five tax years following the transfer of ownership, which may be incompatible with certain tax abatements and/or lot combinations otherwise available to the selected purchaser. Requests to waive the DLBA’s tax capture rights will be reviewed and may require a payment in lieu of taxes (PILOT). The total site area is approximately 44,261 square feet. Included parcels are located at 2148, 2158, 2166, 2172, 2184, 2194, and 2196 Field Street. Proposals must be submitted no later than February 27, 2026 at 5:00 PM.
