Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This for-sale development parcel consists of seven vacant lots, including six contiguous parcels that create a substantial unified footprint. An additional lot provides separate optionality for different layouts. One of the lots features a large brick structure with plumbing and electrical utilities already in place, offering an existing improvement that may support a variety of redevelopment concepts.

The property borders Grosse Pointe Park, placing it near the park’s surrounding amenities and convenient access to the area. The site is located at 2500 Alter Road in Detroit, within Wayne County. Zoning is PD (Planned Development), and utilities are described as available to support development planning across the full assemblage.

The configuration is well-suited for buyers and developers looking for flexibility in how they stage a project on a mostly contiguous block while retaining the ability to allocate the separate lot for additional uses. The presence of a brick structure with plumbing and electrical can be a practical consideration for operators evaluating different end-product options within the PD framework.

Key Highlights

  • Large development property with seven vacant lots bordering Grosse Pointe Park
  • Six contiguous parcels plus one additional lot for flexible development layouts and site planning
  • Large brick structure on one lot with plumbing and electrical utilities
