A public auction for the property at 10-12 North Second Street will be held on December 6, 2016. The auction notice describes the structure as a "3-story Historic Warehouse." Terms are $10,000 down on the day of sale with settlement within 45 days. The property was recently listed for sale for $350,000. The building was formerly home to Becker's Potato Chip Factory and is currently owned by David and Suzanne Doolittle.
Let's hope the buyer will not make apartments out of it. We don't need any more. Too many already.
ReplyDeleteWish the Doolittles well and hope for a positive outcome for the future of this property.
ReplyDeleteDo we wish the Biglers well too. Am I missing something here. There last name should be spelled Do Little.
DeleteIf it is apartments so be it. Get rid of Ghetto Landlords and Tenants, Welfare Reform.
ReplyDeleteLuxury apartments would be nice along with some shops.
DeleteDon't need anymore apts in this town already have to many.
ReplyDeleteThere is not a market here for true luxury apartments, somebody could potentially call a project luxury apartments and slip them in but ultimately they will slip down to something considerably less than luxury, sort of the opposite of putting a rotten apple in a basket and thinking the rest won't get rotten, now building 500 luxury apartments like they did in Asheville North Carolina, that would make a change

ReplyDeletePerhaps something like Trinity House or Saint Peters Apartments would be a nice thought.
