DescriptionShowHide
Prime Value-Add Mixed-Use Investment in Downtown Buchanan The historic Bliss Building offers a rare redevelopment opportunity in the heart of downtown Buchanan. While known as the Bliss Building, the structure itself is historically significant—originally two buildings—and has long served as the town's social and commercial center. The property currently includes commercial space at street level with five apartments above. Plans developed in collaboration with the City and Historical Society envision reconfiguring the upper level into four high-end rental units, with the ground floor featuring a restaurant and retail space. A liquor license has been applied for. Located in a designated social district across from the library and nearby parks, the building benefits from strong foot traffic. The city has recently completed a $20M state-funded downtown infrastructure upgrade, further enhancing long-term value.
