## Description

### Agent Description
The Burlington depot at the corner of Locust & S 2nd is the gateway to this 5.42 acre parcel of largely undeveloped land in Abilene's SoDA district. Zoned LI, in an opportunity zone, & used for rail, this tract is the largest, contiguous acreage in the South Abilene Planning District. Two buildings are on this property: the 3040 sf Burlington depot & the 3200 sf rail maintenance barn. With the arrival of new bars & restaurants in this area, this parcel would be suitable for redevelopment with mixed-use housing and retail to compliment extant businesses. A 1.08 acre property in the center of this parcel with a 15,000 sf warehouse at 133 Cherry is also listed, bringing this tract to 6.5 acres in downtown Abilene.
