A Historic Downtown Gem with Room to Make It Your Own A landmark that has stood the test of time, this historic building has served the Iron Mountain area since 1889-just as the city was taking shape in the late 19th century. Located in the heart of the historic district, it pairs original character with updated mechanicals and a wealth of possibilities.
The original facade retains its distinctive upper corbels and is complemented by a full copper valance across the front. Inside, the main-floor entry and office area measures approximately 29 * 21 feet and has been refurbished in an industrial style, with original wainscoting, high ceilings, and newer windows and doors.
A 29 * 18-foot rear office and storage area is studded for a future bathroom. The first floor also includes an approximately 29 * 59-foot unfinished area, added in 1952, with high ceilings, a 9 * 10-foot overhead door, and compressed-air lines. The first floor is heated and cooled, making the space well suited to a workshop, mechanics' space, or a creative business.
Upstairs, original hardwood floors and trim bring warmth and character to the second-floor offices. The layout includes an L-shaped three-quarter bath, two offices measuring approximately 8 * 11 feet and 11 * 11 feet, and two storage rooms measuring approximately 15 * 11 feet and 11 * 12 feet.
These rooms are heated and cooled and connect to a spacious 29 * 59-foot cool-storage area. The offices offer views of the surrounding historic buildings and beautiful sunsets. Enjoy the energy of downtown with the farmers market, flower-lined streets, and Out to Lunch concert series nearby.
The property is next to free city parking and also offers street parking and alley access. It is within Iron Mountain's Downtown Development Authority district and was selected as one of five downtown locations for the association's "Power of Word" painted mural project.
