Airport Proximity: Located adjacent to Detroit Metropolitan Airport (Wayne County), which is less than half a mile away; hence, the property benefits from immediate airport adjacency for logistics or aviation-support usage. Salvage Yard / Auto-Related Uses (Zoning Outlook) City Regulation Overview: Detroit adopted a 2022 zoning text amendment specifically addressing auto-related and salvage yard uses. Certain uses—such as auto dismantling, junk and salvage yards—have been newly prohibited in so-called “Gateway Radial” zones. The amendment removed redundant terminology and restricted these uses in specified zones. Historical Context: A previous executive order (2019–2020) placed a moratorium on new scrap yards, auto dismantlers, and similar operations, citing concerns over crime, blight, and over-concentration in neighborhoods. Though that moratorium expired in 2020, regulatory scrutiny remains intense. Current Municipal Policy: While Detroit no longer strictly limits the number of salvage yards citywide, the zoning amendment and licensing regime function as strong controls. Any proposal for a salvage yard, auto-dismantling yard, or major auto recycling operation likely would be restricted or require special zoning classification approval. 10000 French Rd presents a strategic industrial asset with: Direct rail adjacency, offering the possibility of installing a rail spur for materials transport or intermodal uses.
