Description
Positioned along one of Ankeny's most traveled corridors, this 2.3-acre site at 718 S Ankeny Blvd offers a rare opportunity to secure high-visibility ground in a rapidly growing market. With direct access off S Ankeny Blvd, the property benefits from strong daily traffic counts and excellent exposure, ideal for commercial or redevelopment use. What truly sets this location apart is its direct connection to the High Trestle Trail and adjacency to the new High Trestle Trail Experience Park, a multi-phase destination designed to draw significant foot and bike traffic from across Central Iowa.
