$32-Mil Industrial Park Planned for 33 Acres in Detroit Area

STERLING HEIGHTS, MI-Developer Kemp/Peyerk, made up of Kemp and Co. of Madison Heights and Chris Peyerk of Shelby Township, is creating an industrial park on more than 33 acres here. Progress Park, to be made up of mostly light industrial property, is under construction on the east side of Mound Road, north of 16 Mile Road.

Development is just beginning at the site, with a new road just finished in December, says Paul Hoge, an associate broker with Signature Associates of Southfield. “This is one of the only available lots of large square footage left in Sterling Heights,” he says. The city is being built up with light industrial and residential development. Many automotive manufacturers and suppliers, including the General Motors Technical Center, are located in Sterling Heights.

“We’ll be able to use a lot of lots in this development. To get this land, Kemp bought an old farm where the family had owned the property for 70 years,” Hoge notes The land is zoned for industrial use.
