About This Property

The Administration Building adjoins the 30 State Street property. The master plan identifies multi-unit residential use, while the listing describes broader possibilities within the Business Neighborhood Center District.

An existing building and a relatively compact site make the relationship between the structure, access and surrounding land an important part of an early concept. Water, sewer, electricity and internet services are described as stubbed to the site.

The official lot size is 1.5 acres. The FY2026 assessor reference, parcel 243-178.02, records 1.49 acres. Review the property plan together with available building reports when considering an adaptive-reuse proposal.
