Property Description

The Huron River Drive industrial site offers unparalleled access and connectivity. With direct access to Huron River Dr. and within close proximity to I-94 and I-275, this site ensures seamless transportation of goods. The site is adjacent to CSX Railroad, just 12 miles from the CSX Wayne Terminal, and Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport (DTW) is only 1 mile away. Zoned M1 – Light Industrial District, this site is ideal for manufacturing, distribution, logistics, and more. While small wetlands are present on the east side, their impact can be minimized with strategic site planning and no floodplains are present on the property.

In 2024, the site underwent a comprehensive due diligence review through the VIP program, including a detailed site condition analysis, comprehensive information on utility providers and capacity, and a comprehensive report on site details (full report in the document library below).
