Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
This 2.25-acre property, formerly the site of St. Agnes cathedral, school, and convent, presents a development opportunity in Detroit. Situated on the border of the LaSalle Gardens and Virginia Park neighborhoods, just outside of New Center, the land benefits from a location within some of the fastest-growing areas of the city. The property is near planned developments totaling over $3.5 billion over the next 5 years, including a $2.8 billion new-build hospital complex. The current owner suggests potential uses such as townhome-style condos, converting the school into apartments, and restoring the church as a commercial space. Site plans are available upon request, with space for as many as 106 townhomes and 48 rental units in the school. The property has been rezoned SD-2, has passed a Phase 1 environmental assessment, and has obtained an OPRA property tax freeze for 12 years. The sale includes the parcels at 7601 Rosa Parks, 7625 Rosa Parks, 1925 S LaSalle Gardens, 1945 S LaSalle Gardens, 1967 S LaSalle Gardens, 2011 S LaSalle Gardens, and 1950 Bethune. An additional space, consisting of 3 of the 4 lots highlighted in red in the listing photos, can be purchased from the DLBA, and the 4th is available through a private owner, which would bring the total space to over 2.5 acres.
