A rare dual-track development opportunity offering an investor two fully conceived paths to value creation on a single site. ? The property has already undergone extensive planning and site engineering. ? Under the first strategy, the site benefits from a site plan approved self storage development, supported by four professionally engineered building configurations prepared by TruSteel Buildings, spanning hybrid climate-controlled/traditional storage, dedicated boat and RV storage, and full-service marine storage concepts of up to approximately 65,550 square feet across as many as seven buildings. ? Under the second strategy, the site can be developed as a multifamily apartment community, with conceptual site layouts accommodating approximately 66 to 110 units across two- and three-building configurations, complete with clubhouse and leasing office, walking paths, community pond, professional landscaping, and ample parking. ? Positioned on Shortcut Road (the M-29 corridor) adjacent to established commercial development, the site combines visibility, access, and flexibility in one of the St. ? Clair River corridor's established waterfront communities -- a market defined by strong boating culture, constrained new housing supply, and steady rental demand. ?
