Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
Built in 1923, this highly visible industrial warehouse features a showroom-style main floor and substantial upper-area space. The property includes 12,207 SF on the main level plus an additional 8,000 SF second floor and mezzanine storage/office area. Vertical access is supported by three independent staircases, and two restrooms are located on the main showroom floor. The building is set up for electrical-intensive operations, with heavy-duty 3-phase power and extensive wiring throughout for product display, lighting, and heavy appliance testing. The roof was fully recoated three years ago with a premium 50-year material.
The property is positioned for strong street presence on W Saginaw St on the hard corner of Verlinden, offering convenient visibility along a high-traffic corridor. Loading is supported by three overhead drive-in doors: two 8' high doors and one 7' high door.
Designed to support a range of retail, warehouse, and flex uses, the space is also suited to adaptive concepts that benefit from open industrial character. The mezzanine includes an opportunity to remove portions to open the ceiling and expose the original 1923 metal trusses, which may appeal to operators seeking a high-ceiling environment for showroom, event, or creative uses. The combination of flexible interior volume, dedicated loading, and robust electrical service supports a practical tenant and buyer fit for equipment-oriented and display-heavy operations.
