Prime Freestanding Retail Opportunity - Former Big Lots / Discount Planet - Now Available for Lease at Competitive $6.15/SF Gross! This expansive 44,877 square foot building offers exceptional versatility and immediate availability in one of Kankakee County's most visible commercial corridors. Positioned along heavily trafficked Kennedy Drive (Route 45/52), with strong daily vehicle counts and easy access to I-57, the property sits in a thriving retail node surrounded by established anchors including Dollar General, Rent-A-Center, and Papa John's. Previously home to Big Lots and more recently Discount Planet, this proven big-box location features a massive, open floor plate ideal for high-volume retail, discount/outlet concepts, furniture/home goods, wholesale operations, e-commerce fulfillment, light industrial, or adaptive reuse. Standout features include two loading docks for efficient truck access and shipping/receiving, ample parking, prominent signage opportunities, high ceilings, wide aisles, and a customer-friendly layout ready for quick occupancy or minor tenant improvements. Offered at an aggressive $6.15 per square foot gross lease rate, this represents outstanding value for a large-scale space in a secondary but growing market-well below comparable NNN rates in the area and perfect for tenants seeking scale without the hassle of separate expense pass-throughs.

Rent Types
The rent amount and type that the tenant (lessee) will be responsible to pay to the landlord (lessor) throughout the lease term is negotiated prior to both parties signing a lease agreement. The rent type will vary depending upon the services provided. For example, triple net rents are typically lower than full service rents due to additional expenses the tenant is required to pay in addition to the base rent. Contact the listing broker for a full understanding of any associated costs or additional expenses for each rent type.
1. Full Service: A rental rate that includes normal building standard services as provided by the landlord within a base year rental.
2. Double Net (NN): Tenant pays for only two of the building expenses; the landlord and tenant determine the specific expenses prior to signing the lease agreement.
3. Triple Net (NNN): A lease in which the tenant is responsible for all expenses associated with their proportional share of occupancy of the building.
4. Modified Gross: Modified Gross is a general type of lease rate where typically the tenant will be responsible for their proportional share of one or more of the expenses.
