Unlock the potential of a once-in-a-generation real estate opportunity with two distinguished commercial buildings set along the picturesque Black River. Just steps from the heart of the city’s downtown district, this historic duo offers unmatched charm, scale, and redevelopment potential. The Fairbanks Building boasts approximately 18,000 square feet of versatile space, formerly utilized for retail and warehousing. It stands beside the iconic Factory Square Building — an enormous 100,000+ square foot industrial masterpiece that once served as the headquarters of the legendary H.H. Babcock Buggy Company, producers of horse-drawn carriages, automobile bodies, and essential parts in the early transportation era. Rich with architectural character and authentic industrial features, both properties are equipped with high ceilings, freight elevators, and sprinkler systems, making them adaptable for a range of commercial, creative, or mixed-use ventures. Their prime waterfront location coupled with direct access to the city center makes this a compelling canvas for visionary investors and developers. Whether you're imagining vibrant retail corridors, stylish loft offices, or a dynamic live-work-play destination, these buildings offer the bones, history, and location to bring it to life. Seize the opportunity to breathe new life into a storied site—schedule your private tour today.
