Goal:100% retail Occupancy by 2022!
East Warren was a thriving business district for many years. In the 1950s there were 161 businesses between Bedford and Guilford.
Currently, east Warren has 36.5% retail occupancy. But majority of the buildings are standing and waiting for businesses to occupy them!
The three neighborhoods that border the E Warren Corridor spend over 200 Million Dollars on retail goods and entertainment but virtually non of that is captured locally currently. The more we can assist businesses to locate on E Warren the more jobs and Money can be captured locally. (This corridor has the highest consumer expenditure of any on the Eastside of Detroit!)
The city has made E Warren a priority and will be coming in 2018-2019 to plan the E Warren Corridor, so why not get a head start on getting development started!
