Offering Summary
225 NW Curtis Street represents an opportunity to acquire a ±2.41-acre property with existing industrial and office improvements in North Topeka across from the historic Union Pacific train station, now revitalized as the Great Overland Station.
Property Overview
The property consists of approximately 104,993 square feet of land improved with approximately 15,625 square feet of warehouse, shop, and office space that can support a variety of operational or income-producing uses.
The site includes multiple functional buildings that provide flexibility for contractor operations, equipment service businesses, fleet operations, storage, light industrial use, or other service-oriented businesses that benefit from shop space and yard area. Because the property includes several structures and outdoor areas, it offers the ability for an owner-user or investor to utilize portions of the property while repositioning or leasing other areas.
One of the buildings includes dock-height loading, which can support warehouse or distribution functions. Another larger shop structure features oversized overhead doors and heated workspace, making it well suited for large truck repair, equipment maintenance, fabrication operations, contractor service businesses, or fleet maintenance uses. The shop building also includes office space and mezzanine storage, adding additional operational flexibility.
The site also contains yard areas that can accommodate contractor staging, vehicle parking, equipment storage, or fleet operations, making it attractive to buyers who require a combination of indoor workspace and outdoor operational space.
Because the property contains multiple usable improvements, a buyer has the ability to generate income or operate a business on the site while evaluating longer-term plans for the property.
Location Overview
The property is located in North Topeka adjoining the North Topeka Arts District, an area known locally for its collection of galleries, restaurants, and historic buildings.
The site sits directly across from the historic Union Pacific train station, now revitalized as the Great Overland Station, which functions today as a museum and event venue and serves as one of the most recognizable historic landmarks in the district.
The property also benefits from proximity to downtown Topeka and the Kansas River corridor, placing it within an area that has been the subject of long-term planning discussions regarding riverfront activation and improved connectivity between downtown and North Topeka.
The site is also located near the prospective landing area of the planned pedestrian bridge intended to connect downtown Topeka with North Topeka.
Investment Perspective
From an investment standpoint, the property offers the combination of existing usable improvements and long-term redevelopment potential within a recognizable district of the city.
The existing buildings provide immediate operational functionality and potential income-producing opportunities, while the size and configuration of the site allow a buyer to evaluate future redevelopment or repositioning options over time.
Because of its location adjoining the North Topeka district, redevelopment projects may potentially qualify for various economic development tools, depending on the scope of a project and governing body approval. These may include:
• Industrial Revenue Bonds (IRBs)
• Potential Tax Increment Financing (TIF) district formation
• Neighborhood Revitalization Act (NRA) programs
• Potential Transient Guest Tax (TGT) participation for qualifying projects
Environmental due diligence has already been completed, with Phase I and Phase II Environmental Site Assessments available for review.
The property may appeal to contractors, equipment service companies, fleet operators, fabrication shops, owner-users seeking a combination of shop space and yard area, or investors looking for functional industrial space with long-term redevelopment potential.
