Prime Freestanding Retail Opportunity - Former Big Lots / Discount Planet - Now Available for Lease at Competitive $6.15/SF Gross! This expansive 44,877 square foot building offers exceptional versatility and immediate availability in one of Kankakee County's most visible commercial corridors. Positioned along heavily trafficked Kennedy Drive (Route 45/52), with strong daily vehicle counts and easy access to I-57, the property sits in a thriving retail node surrounded by established anchors including Dollar General, Rent-A-Center, and Papa John's. Previously home to Big Lots and more recently Discount Planet, this proven big-box location features a massive, open floor plate ideal for high-volume retail, discount/outlet concepts, furniture/home goods, wholesale operations, e-commerce fulfillment, light industrial, or adaptive reuse. Standout features include two loading docks for efficient truck access and shipping/receiving, ample parking, prominent signage opportunities, high ceilings, wide aisles, and a customer-friendly layout ready for quick occupancy or minor tenant improvements. Offered at an aggressive $6.15 per square foot gross lease rate, this represents outstanding value for a large-scale space in a secondary but growing market-well below comparable NNN rates in the area and perfect for tenants seeking scale without the hassle of separate expense pass-throughs. Ideal for retailers, distributors, logistics users, or investors looking to capitalize on a turnkey big-box asset with established infrastructure.
