There are a lot of issues that come into play when dealing with geo-referenced DWG site drawings linked into Revit. However, the following two images can add a lot of clarity to the issues around a DWG file linked in center-to-center.
Additionally...
After these steps, the site linework (from the DWG) is on the same "Continent" and can be seen near your Revit model:) But zoom extents is still unfortunate in any un-cropped views.
The main thing to know here is the entire DWG file, including the origin (0,0) is included in what Revit sees as the extents... even when there is no linework anywhere near the origin.
