Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

Built in 1913, this one-story industrial building features vaulted ceilings and a dramatic open-span layout. The structure includes approximately 6,250 SF +/- total with more than 5,500 SF of open space free of any columns, supporting flexible interior arrangements.

The property also includes the adjacent lot, which can accommodate parking or other outdoor opportunities. Public remarks indicate the building is located about one block from the planned WNBA Riverfront practice facility, with that city council-approved practice facility site described as half a block to the south near the Detroit River adjacent to Belle Isle. BikeScore, walkScore, and transitScore are listed as 83, 72, and 50, respectively.

For redevelopment, this configuration provides substantial unobstructed floor area within a single-story shell, along with nearby outdoor staging potential via the included adjacent lot.
