Redevelopment

20880 Gratiot | Eastpointe, Michigan | B-1 Community Business, PUD

This property is a high priority redevelopment node for the city of Eastpointe. An internal visioning session with the planning commission and three council representatives resulted in a desire for mixed-use, residential retail. However, city officials are eager to redevelop this site and will entertain all proposals. Currently, the site is zoned for storage, but the city is willing to amend the zoning ordinance to accommodate any potential use. With its prime location on busy Gratiot Avenue, this property promises to be a successful redevelopment project, whatever direction it takes.

Working in Eastpointe, a Redevelopment Ready Community

Quick Links

Eastpointe was certified by the Michigan Suburbs Alliance as a Redevelopment Ready Community in March 2006.  Achieving this distinction required the city to conduct a thorough analysis of its internal redevelopment processes and resolve weaknesses, inefficiencies and complexities with the help of certified planning consultants.  Improvements were guided by the Redevelopment Ready Communities Best Practices, which were developed by a committee made up of representatives from development, real estate, academia, and state and local government.  The result is an open and inviting redevelopment climate in the city of Eastpointe.
