12001 Farmington Road is a premier 283,110-square-foot manufacturing facility in Livonia, Michigan, offering a rare combination of heavy crane infrastructure, robust power capacity, and exceptional freeway visibility. Expanded in 2018 and 2020, the facility features two massive 580-foot-long crane bays: the first includes 50/20-ton cranes with a 36-foot underhook, 50-foot width, and 44-foot clear height; the second offers 30-ton cranes with a 24-foot underhook, 40-foot width, and 30-foot clear height. This highly specialized configuration makes the building ideally suited for heavy manufacturing, metal fabrication, or automotive component production. Additional features include 19 loading docks, seven drive-in doors, a 1.7-acre rear concrete yard, and 8,700 square feet of updated office space. Zoned M-2 Heavy Industrial and equipped with dual primary electrical services, the facility is purpose-built for intensive industrial users with crane-supported operations.
Strategically located just a half-mile south of Interstate 96, the site provides immediate access to Interstate 275, Michigan Highway 14, and the broader Southeast Michigan highway network, enabling fast connections to Detroit, Ann Arbor, and regional hubs. Three curb cuts along Farmington Road support separate ingress/egress for truck and employee traffic, enhancing safety and circulation for large-scale logistics operations. 12001 Farmington Road lies less than 30 minutes from Detroit Metropolitan Airport (DTW) and is near CSX and Norfolk Southern rail lines, offering valuable multimodal logistics options. Surrounding amenities include national retailers such as Costco, Meijer, Michaels, The Home Depot, and others, which are convenient for employees and provide supporting services. A work pool of over 110,000 warehouse and industrial workers within a 10-mile radius, and nearby educational institutions like Schoolcraft College and the University of Michigan–Dearborn, support workforce availability and ongoing talent development.
Located in the heart of Southeast Michigan’s advanced manufacturing and logistics corridor, Livonia is home to major original equipment manufacturers like Ford and Stellantis, as well as a vast network of suppliers, logistics firms, and production partners. Livonia promotes industrial growth through pro-business policies, streamlined permitting, and economic incentives, making it a proven destination for long-term capital investment. 12001 Farmington Road presents a rare opportunity to lease a high-performance, modern industrial facility purpose-built for heavy-duty operations in one of Michigan’s most established and dynamic manufacturing submarkets.
