Overview

This for-lease retail space is positioned to serve a wide range of consumer-facing needs. The property is supported by C-3 zoning, which allows for flexibility across permitted uses including retail, food service, and office. The center configuration is set up for shopper access, with ample on-site parking available for customers and employees.

Located on a high-visibility Traverse City corridor along Garfield Avenue, the site benefits from established surrounding retail activity. The tenant mix includes national retailers such as Honey Baked Ham and The UPS Store, supporting a consistent profile of everyday traffic. BikeScore of 71 indicates the area is very bikeable, and WalkScore of 60 reflects somewhat walkable conditions.

For tenants and operators, the combination of C-3 zoning flexibility and a retail-forward co-tenant environment can help support concepts that need both visibility and accommodating use parameters. The ample on-site parking also makes the space practical for businesses that rely on convenient customer access in a corridor setting.
