Marketing description
SOO PLAZA, located at 3356–3396 I-75 Business Spur, Sault Ste. Marie, MI 49783, is a compelling value-add retail investment opportunity in one of the Upper Peninsula’s primary commercial corridors. This 71,108 SF shopping center offers exceptional visibility along I-75 Business Spur with traffic counts of 15,600+ vehicles per day and is positioned less than two miles from I-75.
Anchored by Arona and supported by a diverse tenant mix including Best Mattress, Sault Vision, #1 Nails, and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the plaza combines in-place income with significant upside. The property is currently 30% vacant, with 21,823 SF available across six suites, creating a strong opportunity to increase NOI through lease-up.
The center benefits from ample parking, recent capital improvements including new HVAC units, and strong surrounding retail traffic from nearby national brands such as Walmart, Hobby Lobby, T.J.

Adding to the long-term appeal, the property includes approximately 7.10 acres of additional land behind the building for potential future development or expanded use.
