Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

The 1918 firehouse at 1201 Bagley St. contains 10,000 square feet of rentable commercial or office space across three floors and a basement. The first floor measures 3,600 square feet and includes an open area with two conference rooms. Original oak floors, fire-engine tiles, three firetruck doors, four fire poles, and ceilings exceeding 20 feet preserve the building’s character, while new Kohler finishes, GE appliances, and HVAC add updated features. The property also presents a potential 5,000-square-foot expansion, and historical commission approvals are in place for third-floor dormer windows and interior renovations. Residential zoning conversion is described as possible, while the current zoning supports retail and office use.

The building is located on the eastern end of Corktown, fewer than 100 feet from Michigan Avenue. Detroit’s Central Business District is a few hundred yards away, MGM Casino is less than 200 yards away, and three stadiums are just under one mile from the property. Two gated alleys and ample street parking serve the site.
