Seller is motivated!!! Located in the heart of downtown Manton along historic West Main Street, this unique commercial opportunity spans three city lots and includes two connected buildings plus an adjacent development-ready lot. Currently operating as Blue Pin Alley (since 2018) with event space, this property has served as a community gathering place for generations, with roots dating back to an early 1900s bowling alley and later the Manton Theater (1949–1968). The property features two distinct structures offering exceptional redevelopment potential. The right-side building is a single-story structure with a small upper loft that once housed the theater's projector. The larger three-level building includes a spacious open main floor, an upper level with an existing apartment and additional shell space potentially suitable for 2–3 residential units, and a lower level that once housed the original bowling lanes along with multiple office or storage rooms. With prominent Main Street visibility and three downtown lots zoned for development, this property presents a rare opportunity for adaptive reuse, mixed-use redevelopment, or urban renewal. Potential uses may include a brewery or taproom, food hall, event venue, entertainment space, boutique retail, boutique hospitality, short-term or long-term rental, or other mixed-use redevelopment — subject to buyer verification of permitted use with the Village of Manton and applicable local approvals. Investment dreams await in one of Manton’s most recognizable historic locations.
