Property Description

Own a rare piece of Muskegon's downtown legacy with this incredible 39,204 square foot historic building located at 521 W Western Avenue—just two blocks from the VanDyk Mortgage Convention Center and steps from Muskegon Lake, local breweries, restaurants, and the vibrant downtown social district.

Built in 1926, this solid reinforced masonry and concrete structure has played many roles in Muskegon's history—from housing Hooper Brothers Chevrolet, to serving as a Midwest distribution hub for Datsun vehicles, and most recently, a private classic car collection.

Set on a prominent corner lot with street and alley access, the property includes 14-foot ceilings, 14-foot overhead doors, interior parking, and open-span floor plans ideal for adaptive reuse. With its newly updated roof, the building is structurally sound, well-lit, and ready for transformation.

Zoned B-3 (downtown commercial/industrial), it offers endless possibilities: loft-style residences, creative office suites, boutique retail or showroom space, event venues, or even a brewery or taproom.

Surrounded by Muskegon's cultural and recreational gems including Hackley Park, The Monet Garden of Muskegon, the Heritage Memorial Garden, the Frauenthal Center, and the farmers market this property offers not just square footage, but significance and potential in one of Michigan's most walkable and revitalized urban corridors.

  • Nick did an awesome job in helping us find and purchase our condo. He listened to our wants and identified options and in the end we found a good fit for our needs for a vacation home Since we are far from Holland Nick set up a couple video tours to reduce travel. Thanks Nick for all the hard work and insight. We are very excited about our new home!

  • Nick was awesome to work with! I just went through the process of purchasing my first home and Nick couldn’t have made it any easier. He is super knowledgeable about the industry and the area. He answered all my questions and made sure to point out things I may not be thinking of since it was my first time going through the process. He was attentive, super responsive, easy to talk to, and truly cares about finding his clients a home they’ll love! I’m looking forward to working with him again in the future and would definitely recommend him as an agent!

  • Nick was amazing to work with! This was my first time buying a house. Nick was very patient and took the time to walk me through everything and address all my questions. He was always quick to respond. He was clearly knowledgeable about the area and was great at pointing out and educating me on issues to watch for as we walked through houses. I absolutely recommend Nick to anyone buying or selling a home, and look forward to working with him again in the future!
