Historic building downtown near the City Museum and Moon Brothers Loft Building. This mixed use 2 story building has had a variety of uses over the years. Would make an excellent food/drink establishment with the right owner. Would also make a very cool single residence. There is a full bathroom, shower, kitchen upstairs which could be used as a rental or for the owner to reside. Currently the tax bill is attached to other parcels on the block, but will be separated prior to a sale and reflective of it's actual value.
