Police believe she may have suffered a medical episode prior to collapsing.
It is understood Ms McKenzie had suffered from a long-term medical condition.
Manchester Coroner's Court heard that her cause of death was still unascertained, following an initial post-mortem examination.
Further tests are currently being conducted by a cardiologist and a neuropathologist, the court heard.
Area Coroner for Manchester City, Zak Golembeck said he had received a file from GMP in relation to the death.
"On 27 May at around 00.40 hours a member of the public was walking home in Hulme when they walked through an alleyway and noticed a body lying face down on the floor," he said.
"At the time this individual flagged down another individual and a man in a car and told him to ring an ambulance.
"One of the individuals who stopped was instructed to perform resuscitation but Ms McKenzie was pronounced dead at the scene.
"There was a police investigation and it was noted at the time that Keeley didn't have her mobile phone with her which her family had reported she left the house with.
"There were a number of hypothesises held by the investigating officer."
Mr Golembeck said that as a result of this information, he had requested that a forensic post-mortem was undertaken.
Ms McKenzie's cause of death remains unascertained, and the inquest was adjourned pending the results of examinations from a cardiologist and neuropathologist.
