Subject property is located at 799 River Oaks Drive in Calumet City, Illinois, positioned along a highly visible commercial corridor just blocks from the River Oaks Center Mall and surrounded by major national retailers and neighborhood services. This 2,800 square foot freestanding building is a second-generation former Popeyes restaurant featuring a drive-thru, prominent signage, and ample parking on a 0.74-acre site.
