The Walker’s Point neighborhood is booming, particularly the area in and around the Reed Street Yards.

One of the latest, and largest, area projects is the new Rite-Hite headquarters, slated for completion in 2022. But at the northeast corner of the Reed Street Yards business park is a derelict multi-story warehouse at 222 W. Freshwater Way. Totaling roughly 204,300 square feet, it was built in 1913 and formerly housed the Courteen Seed Co., according to records from the city assessor’s office and Wisconsin Historical Society.

It is owned by Courteen LLC, registered to local developer Peter Moede. He is a co-developer of Reed Street Yards and developed other properties nearby such as the River Place Lofts. He acquired it in 2015 for $200,000, but hasn’t yet revealed plans for the property.
