Guardian Bluffs, currently Epic Steel, is a 3.82-Acre Opportunity Zoned development site located in Cleveland, OH. The site is uniquely positioned in the heart of the Cleveland urban core neighborhoods, including Ohio City, Flats East and West Bank, Downtown Cleveland, Duck Island, and Tremont. The immediate trade area has thousands of new multifamily units under construction as Cleveland’s urban core experiences a renaissance.
The site is adjacent to the brand new (2025) transformational development Thunderbird on the Scranton Peninsula, boasting a combined 600+ market apartments with some town homes as well as the new globally recognized BrewDog and future Great Lakes Brewery. Additionally, The Collins—a 316-unit luxury apartment complex developed by the NPR Group—is within walking distance and The Triton at the Flats—a nearby 293-unit luxury complex developed by Silver Hills—is opening soon.
Guardian Bluffs is positioned in an overlay district which allows for multifamily zoning. Additionally, the city of Cleveland has excellent tax abatement packages for qualified developments. The site has great connectivity to the 100-mile Towpath trail and 20-acre Irishtown Bend public park project and waterfront revitalization.
