Incredible opportunity to purchase a building at one of the most prominent intersections in Downtown St. Catharines. Located on the corner of King and James, across the street from Market Square, and less than one block from City Hall, this property has the ability to achieve classy appeal and high traffic exposure with many nearyby amenities. The building used to be occupied by a popular franchise coffee shop, a convenience stores, and offices on the second floor. Buyers and agents should note that the building has been vacant for some time and has fallen into notable disrepair that requires significant investment to restore it to a structure that can be occupied, which is the reason for the low price point. At the very minimum buyers should be prepared to replace all lighting and light fixtures, wiring, and electrical systems, plumbing and fixtures, all mechanical systems are heating and a/c including ducting, doors, windows, hardware, fire systems, major drywall and demising wall repair, and more in order to make the structure safe and approved for occupancy so please keep this is mind before making a tour request (more work than this may be required for occupancy). The property is being sold as is where is.
