1033 Barkell St - Le Baron Elementary School
Directly across from the General Motors Propulsion Systems World Headquarters on Joslyn/near I-75
Marketing description
Barkell is available but it is a cold shell – the kids vandalized this building. Structurally is good and ample land. This building is in rough condition, but classrooms can eventually be reused with renovation. The neighborhood kids have lit the gym on fire but the building is structurally “sound” condition -- we have not done any tests to verify this. No environmental – historically, always been a school building
This site is directly across from the General Motors Propulsion Systems World Headquarters on Joslyn/near I-75. This former school building – almost 40,000 sf – has been cared for but vandals continue to erase our progress at the school site. As of late, vandals tried to set our building on fire --the fire department took out every one of our windows. Leaving our historical building in rough condition. The building has very strong bones, still.
We are pleased to being to market the former Labaron School Elementary School in Pontiac. The building was designed and built with fine architectural details. The two-story complex features a massive open space gymnasium and performance/stage space, locker rooms, shower rooms with high ceilings alongside sprung wooden floors and full cafeteria/kitchen facilities. The school offers over 20 classrooms and several small offices. The building was built with a solid brick and concrete construction.

Previously a small fire occurred in the gymnasium, whereby the fire department busted the windows. Since then, Ownership has been embarking on a project to clean-up and rehab the school. He is in the process of gutting the school and manicuring the lawn, now he is able to secure workers.
The site has been vacant for a decade, and all the equipment FF&E are the original equipment. The property is situated off Joslyn Ave, between E. Walton Blvd and N.
