Historic Strait-McKenna Buildings

Up to 20,750 Square Feet in Salida's Historical District

$4,450,000 ($215/sq ft)


This is a premium property in downtown Salida's unique Historic District. Located at F and 3rd, the Strait and McKenna buildings were both built in 1902. They have similar facades, but are two buildings separated by a firewall. They could be sold, leased, or developed separately.

The Strait building was started and completed first. It is 40'x70'. On the street level, it is divided into two long rooms that would be ideal for retail shops or art galleries. Upstairs, the building was originally twelve offices and could be finished out into offices or apartments. It has a basement with a stone foundation and dirt floor which could be usable for storage.

The McKenna building was started while the Strait building was under construction. A 1902 newspaper article referred to it as "the handsomest new business building in Salida." It is 50'x100'. The street level is mostly one large, open space. The McKenna building also boasts the oldest functioning elevator in Salida (a hand operated freight lift). The 5,000 square feet on the street level is finished out with the original tin ceiling restored. Upstairs is the historic Elks Lodge ballroom where many social events, dances, and balls were held for the burgeoning town of Salida. The basement has a concrete floor and is finished and ready for occupation. It could be used for additional retail space or storage.

These beautiful, historic buildings are available together or separately, for sale, lease, or development potential.
