It features a large open meeting hall with stage, classic wood bar with coolers and sinks, functional kitchen, storage areas and a usable restroom, plus an additional restroom downstairs that is not currently in use. The upper level reflects the building’s original lodging history and includes approximately 14 former hotel rooms, several community-style spaces and multiple bathrooms that are currently non-operational and will require renovation. Vinyl windows throughout. White membrane roof is reported to be in excellent condition with no pooling, and the scuppers and downspouts are functioning well.
