There are a lot of buildings for sale in downtown Washington right now and I don't know what to think about it.
To the north, the former Kuhlmann building that is currently being used by Bradford Built is being offered for sale now that their expansion at the industrial park can handle the work they were doing downtown. Along C Street, the former Monty Law Office is empty. I don't know if it is for rent or sale.
On the west side of the square, the Schooky's Deli buildings are for sale.
On the south side, the building that held an American Family Insurance office for a while is for rent and the lot of the former Major Theatre is still empty. Along C Street, on the east side, the former laundromat is for sale, signs were recently put on the former Liquid Glass building that it is for sale, and the Longhorn building is for sale. On the west side, Mayberry's Restaurant is for sale, and the former Earhart Abstract and Parry dental office are both being used as residences.
I remember about a year and a half ago commenting that there was practically no commercial space available in downtown Washington. I don't know what happened since then, but there are too many vacancies surrounding us now and we ought to try to do something about it.
