At the rear of the building is a fully approved, fully functional commercial kitchen equipped with a 10-foot hood, freezer, stove, and all necessary fittings, including an exhaust system. This area also includes a full bathroom and an office. The property has been completely re-concreted at the front and back and is fully fenced in and secured. The GFA system includes a coil for central air. Additionally, the city recently replaced all lead pipes with copper piping, extending to the meter box inside the building. All water pipes throughout the property have been updated to copper. All windows in the building are new. Heating is provided by a boiler for the bar and a GFA system for the kitchen. The building, which is over 100 years old, still requires additional rehabilitation to be completed.
