Port Townsend's Interesting Real Estate

This may be the smallest commercial rental you have ever seen. It is located in Downtown Port Townsend right on the main street, Water Street.

This little space has an interesting history, and at one time was the home of our wonderful ice cream store, still know as the Elevated. The Elevated got it's name from the small elevator shown in the photo where the ice cream was sold out of the small window.

Today, the Elevated Ice Cream store is located across the street and has grown to a large shop with tables and chairs, a small candy store, and long lines of customers during the warmer season. The ice cream is still home made and hand packed, and is the best! There are usually over 35 flavors using fresh fruits grown locally, and Italian ices.

Can you think of a smart new business to locate in the old elevator? The rent should be affordable.
