Detroit-area shoppers who love buying in bulk? They’re in luck: Costco will soon be opening one of its Business Center locations in nearby Southfield. The store will be similar to a traditional Costco but will offer shoppers the chance to buy items in even larger bulk sizes.
Alan Stern and Rich Deptula of Friedman Real Estate advised the seller on the sale of a 13.38-acre parcel at the corner of Northland Drive and Northwestern Highway in Southfield, Michigan. The location will be the future home of Michigan’s first Costco Business Center.
The new location for Costco will differ from its standard consumer retail warehouses. Products will be offered in greater quantities and won’t include the bakery and pharmacy that are in current Michigan locations.
The new 160,000-square-foot retail warehouse will be a key component of the Northland City Center project. The more than 100 acres at the former Northland Mall property is being redeveloped for mixed-use offering office, retail, medical and multifamily space.
Northland City Center is in the heart of Southfield, Michigan, and in close proximity to Ascension Providence Hospital. With easy access to multiple freeways, the land is located close to downtown Detroit, Troy, Canton, Northville and Ann Arbor, Michigan.
