Investment Highlights
- Direct Lake Huron frontage adjacent to downtown Alpena.
- Located in northeast Michigan's largest city.
- Large-scale site suitable for a variety of development concepts.

- Positioned within an established Northern Michigan tourism market.
- Access to regional demand supported by statewide tourism activity.
Executive Summary
The property's location benefits from Alpena's established tourism economy and access to Northern Michigan's broader visitor market. The region's extensive freshwater coastline continues to attract seasonal and year-round visitors, while expanded air service through Cherry Capital Airport in Traverse City has increased accessibility from markets across the country. Alpena offers a less congested alternative to some of Northern Michigan's more mature resort destinations, supporting long-term demand drivers for residential, hospitality, mixed-use, and waterfront-oriented development concepts.
The scale of the site allows for a variety of development approaches while maintaining direct access to Lake Huron and the amenities of downtown Alpena. As waterfront development opportunities in established communities become increasingly limited, the property's combination of size, location, and lake frontage distinguishes it within the Northern Michigan market. The offering is further supported by Michigan's tourism sector, which generated $54.8 billion in economic activity and $3.6 billion in state and local tax revenue in 2024, highlighting the significance of tourism-related demand throughout the state.
