Parcel A-1 offers a large-scale, employment-oriented development opportunity in one of west Missoula's expanding growth corridors — a rare chance to acquire land at this size for a use profile most infill sites can't accommodate.
For developers, the site's scale is the draw: enough acreage to combine building footprint with true operational yard space, an increasingly scarce combination close to established residential and commercial areas. The Airport Hazard Overlay covering a majority of the property caps residential density at four dwelling units per acre and restricts certain high-occupancy uses, but it does not preclude development — it points the site toward exactly the kind of employment-oriented program that performs well here: light industrial, service, contractor, and work-live uses, with limited residential where permitted. That constraint effectively narrows the competition for a buyer who already has that use profile in mind.
For investors, the location works on fundamentals: direct connectivity to Mullan Road, Reserve Street, and the broader west-side transportation network, plus proximity to Missoula International Airport, an advantage for tenants or users with regional logistics or transportation needs. Within 5 miles, 66,356 residents and 30,323 households support an average household income of $82,883, underpinning demand for the service, contractor, and light-industrial uses this site is best positioned for.
