Cotton Ridge Development Commercial Land Opportunity
58 Total Acres | 1.5 AC to 9.5 AC Lots Available | TIF Funds Available | Opportunity Zone Location
Marketing description
We are pleased to present a prime development opportunity for qualified investors—approximately 58 acres of strategically located land in Sikeston, MO, a key regional hub in Southeast Missouri.
This exceptional property is directly adjacent to top-tier national retailers, including Walmart Supercenter, Lowe’s, Hampton Inn, McDonald’s, and more, with prominent frontage on Highway 60. Notably, Highway 60 is currently being upgraded to Interstate 57—a federally approved project that will significantly increase traffic volume and exposure upon completion.
Developers and investors have the flexibility to acquire parcels ranging from 1.5 to 9.5 acres, all within a designated Opportunity Zone. Additionally, this property is part of a Tax Increment Financing (TIF) District, offering reimbursement on a portion of development costs (details available upon request).
This is a rare chance to secure developable, commercially zoned land in a pro-business municipality with attractive tax incentives. With the upcoming transformation of Highway 60 into Interstate 57, this site is positioned to become a premier regional destination.
