Central Penn Business Journal: One of York City’s most notable historic buildings is back on the market – for a limited time.
ROCK Commercial Real Estate LLC listed the former Post Office on 200 S. George St. for $1,795,000 this past week….
Currently, the building is being used as storage for Washington, D.C.-based furniture store Persiano Gallery, as well as a local roofing company, Bauer said.
But RSDC hopes to find a new tenant that will be interested in redeveloping the one-of-a-kind building for a more impactful use on the community, Benjamin M. Chiaro, brokerage advisor for ROCK, said.
Built in 1911, the 57,428 square-foot, two-story historic building features marble floors and large columns. Chiaro also noted that there is space for between 50 and 100 parking spaces behind the building depending on how the lines are drawn. When the building was a Post Office, the lot was mostly used for larger trucks.
“This grandiose and stately building anchors the southern gateway to York’s central business district,” he said. “It would be ideal for an entertainment, hospitality or event space, brewery or pub … or something for the public.”
The Post Office relocated to 160 W. Market St. in 2013. York businessman Themi Sacarellos bought the vacated property, under the company Molt LLC, from the Postal Service for $350,000. After performing some renovations, Sacarellos sold the building for $795,000 in 2015 to Hashempour.  Read more.
