Possibly the most familiar landmark in downtown Kalamazoo is the Michigan News Agency, and the building is now for sale. The first floor has two retail suites. One is the historic news stand, which appears as it did in 1947; the only hint of today are the newspapers from February 8 and the current paperbacks on the shelves. The other is an established salon, which has an ADA restroom and newer HVAC system. Upstairs are the owner's offices, with abundant windows facing south and east. The upper level would make an excellent conversion to apartments. The building and its trademark sign mark the entrance to downtown, and its proximity to the Event Center creates limitless opportunities. There is only one Michigan News Agency, and this opportunity won't come around again for generations.
Look for the Michigan News Agency sign. Plenty of 90-minute free parking on the street.
