Executive Summary
BellCornerstone is pleased to present a 166,346-square-foot industrial/warehouse facility situated on 8.77 acres in Muskegon, Michigan. Constructed of durable masonry in 1952, this property offers a flexible layout with functional loading, ample clear height, and expansion-ready land. 1185 E Keating Avenue is delivered vacant to the market and presents immediate occupancy availability, creating an outstanding owner/user opportunity for manufacturing, warehousing, or distribution operations.
The warehouse is approximately 7 miles from the Muskegon County Airport and 50 miles from the Gerald R. Ford International Airport. 1185 E Keating Avenue is just off Interstate 96, supporting last-mile delivery logistics and regional accessibility. Interstate 96 begins at US 31 and extends to major metros such as Grand Rapids, Lansing, and Detroit. The interstate links Muskegon directly with the state capital region and the Detroit metro, providing access to Michigan’s largest economic centers.
Muskegon is a city and county on Michigan’s western side along Lake Michigan, in the western Lower Peninsula of the state. It serves as a regional hub for the lakeshore and rural inland areas. Historically, the area’s economy has roots in manufacturing, shipping, and natural resources (especially lumber and the lakeshore port). In recent decades, the region has also emphasized tourism (lakefront, beaches, trails), healthcare, education, and light industry. Though not a major metropolitan core, Muskegon is a secondary city in West Michigan, with links to larger centers (e.g., Grand Rapids) while serving local and county-level economic activity.
The Muskegon metro is about 40 miles west of Grand Rapids and part of the broader Grand Rapids–Muskegon combined statistical area, one of the fastest-growing regions in the Upper Midwest. Once known as a lumber and heavy-industry center, Muskegon today is defined by a deep, advanced manufacturing base, a major Great Lakes deepwater port, a substantial healthcare sector, and a growing Lake Michigan tourism economy. More blue-collar and more affordable than its larger neighbor, the metro pairs a working industrial waterfront with 26 miles of freshwater shoreline, shaping its economic landscape.
