Description

Property 12: Building 813, Old Post Office
10,641 Sq. Ft.
2.4± acres
Tax Parcel ID: 52-05-266-045-00

Located just 15 minutes southeast of Marquette, the largest city in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, this one story cement block building was well known to all that served at K. I. Sawyer Air Force Base if they ever sent or received mail. The property sits back from the road behind the Gwinn-Sawyer Veterinary Clinic and an adjacent building. It can be accessed from two driveways off of Avenue A. The property consists of the main building with lots of windows providing natural light, large parking area and wooded area to the rear.

Current zoning is none specified, but the county is aware of the auction and is willing to work with a new owner if a zoning change is needed for a future use.

The parcel was once part of the K. I. Sawyer Air Force Base which shut down in 1995. Today, K. I. Sawyer is a thriving industrial park/airport with many major companies and families calling it home.

Additional information is available with the return of this completed release.
