14659 N Thornton Rd., Lodi, 95242 (the “Property”), is a rare commercial/retail development parcel directly adjacent to Interstate-5 and just off Highway-12. With nearly an acre of land and prominent freeway frontage, this site delivers excellent visibility, strong drive-by traffic and immediate access to regional transportation corridors — a highly attractive location for automotive, travel-serving and neighborhood-oriented commercial uses.
Flag City/Thornton Road interchange is a primary node for regional traffic moving between Lodi, Stockton and the I-5 corridor. The site benefits from steady commuter and freight flows as well as local patronage from dense commercial and hospitality uses nearby. Zoning: C-FS (Freeway Service Commercial) supports a broad range of commercial uses oriented to highway travelers and local demand (buyer/tenant to verify permitted uses and development standards with San Joaquin County).
This parcel represents a strategic, lower-risk development opportunity with rare direct I-5 frontage in the Flag City node. Its C-FS zoning is purpose-built for freeway-oriented commerce, and the surrounding cluster of travel amenities and services validates demand for quick-service retail, fuel, automotive and truck-oriented businesses. The site’s size and configuration support a quick development timeline for a retail/service concept.
