5964 Wabash St Detroit, MI 48208

This residential infill opportunity includes two parcels located at 5964 & 5976 Wabash in Detroit, Michigan. The land is situated close to Downtown, the Motown Museum, Henry Ford Hospital, Corktown, Midtown, and Wayne State University, as well as future developing areas. The Detroit Land Bank Authority (DLBA) is seeking proposals for small- to medium-scale infill development with the goal of increasing housing supply and restoring the urban fabric, density, and walkability. Interested buyers should consult the DLBA proposal guidelines for new build opportunities and review relevant Neighborhood Framework Plans from the City of Detroit’s Planning and Development Department for additional context about the neighborhood. The total lot size is 0.18 acres. Please note that the Detroit Land Bank Authority is entitled to a tax capture for the 5 tax years subsequent to transferring ownership of the property. The tax capture may be incompatible with tax abatements and/or lot combinations that are otherwise available to the selected purchaser. DLBA will review requests to waive its tax capture rights and may require a payment in lieu of taxes to approve such requests. The payment will be determined upon reviewing the development proforma and effect of any tax abatements on the purchase and development financing.
