Welcome to a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a piece of Walla Walla's rich history! Nestled in the heart of downtown Walla Walla, Washington, this unique property offers a glimpse into the past while presenting endless possibilities for the future. Originally constructed in 1928, with completion in 1930, this iconic building served as the home of Logan Chevrolet, a cornerstone of the community's automotive industry. The first floor boasts a storied past, housing the client service department, parts department, and an auto service center, where generations of locals trusted their vehicles to skilled hands. Ascending to the second floor, one is greeted by a breathtaking display of craftsmanship. Constructed with local timbers harvested from the surrounding area, the massive cross members, some as large as 24 inches by 32 inches and weighing a staggering 17, 000 pounds, stand as a testament to the skill and dedication of the artisans of yesteryear. This level was once the sanctuary for brand-new Chevrolets, providing secure storage for these prized vehicles. A unique feature of the building is its alley access, facilitated by a wooden ramp, allowing for the seamless movement of automobiles between the second floor and the bustling streets below. In 1982, the building found new life when it was acquired by Inland Printing. Transforming the space, they installed printing presses, a dark room, client service areas, and more, further adding to the building's diverse history. Constructed of sturdy brick and heavy timbers, the building offers an open design ideal for a variety of purposes. Whether you envision it as a commercial space, residential loft conversions, or a mixed-use development, the possibilities are endless. Convenience is paramount, with free public parking conveniently located across the alley to the south and another free public parking lot just a stone's throw away to the west. Positioned on the southwest corner of a well-lit intersection with traffic control in all directions, accessibility and visibility are unmatched.
