Property Description
**DEVELOPERS** The former St. Agnes cathedral, school, & convent represents your next HUGE opportunity in Detroit! This prime piece of land is nearly 2.25 acres and is located on the border of the resurgent and quickly developing LaSalle Gardens and Virginia Park neighborhoods, just outside of New Center! There are a variety of potential uses, but its highest and best use is likely clearing everything except the church and school buildings and building townhome style condos, converting the school into apartments, and possibly restoring the church as a magnificent commercial space! The current owner has a variety of site plans drawn up and there is space for as many as 106 townhomes and 48 rental units in the school; site plans available upon request. The lot has been rezoned SD-2, which is one of Detroit's most flexible zoning designations, has passed a Phase 1 environmental assessment, and has obtained an OPRA (Obsolete Property Rehabilitation District) property tax freeze for 12 years. 3 of the 4 lots highlighted in red in the listing photos can be purchased from the DLBA and the 4th is available through a private owner, which would bring the total space to over 2.5 acres. The sale includes the parcels at 7601 Rosa Parks, 7625 Rosa Parks, 1925 S LaSalle Gardens, 1945 S LaSalle Gardens, 1967 S LaSalle Gardens, 2011 S LaSalle Gardens, and 1950 Bethune. Finally, the La Salle Gardens/Virginia Park/Piety Hill neighborhoods are some of the fastest growing areas of the city, with over $3.5 BILLION in developments slated to happen over the next 5 years, including a $2.8 Billion new-build hospital complex that will bring in many high-paying jobs in the medical field! is one of Detroit's most flexible zoning designations, has passed a Phase 1 environmental assessment, and has obtained an OPRA (Obsolete Property Rehabilitation District) property tax freeze for 12 years. 3 of the 4 lots highlighted in red in the listing photos can be purchased from the DLBA and the 4th is available through a private owner, which would bring the total space to over 2.5 acres.

REVIEWS
- 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!Gordon L
- 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!Emily Rzeszutko
- 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!Kayla Kocal
