A car ran off the road last year and hit the side of it. The owners patched the hole and called it good, but its such a strange (and condemned by the city) building.

The old "Arms & Ammo" building. I'm sure we have a thread on it somewhere.


Shame that the current owner isn't doing anything with it.Brad wrote: ↑Mon Jan 30, 2023 3:56 pm Here is a story on it:

That's probably the best use for that building these days. The new owner's mailing address traces back to TACK Architects in Benson, so its probably going to be cool when its done.

There was some old explosive ammunition they were removing from the basement.S.O.Boy wrote: ↑Wed Jun 21, 2023 10:00 pm https://nextdoor.com/p/4-NmszwyBcqg?vie ... query=60th
Does anyone know what is going on at the old gun shop on 60th & Pacific St? I just drive by and saw what looked like a special police unit in large truck. Standard police vehicle sitting there as plain clothes officers were taking items from the back of the building and placing them in a large device that reminded me of the top of a rocket ship; possibly an explosive containment device.
The new owner's address is 2922 N 61 ST #1, which is the address for TACK Architects.

As an architecture firm, have they built before? Or are they contracted by developers typically? Curious if this would be for their offices, or they are dipping their toes into development.
Its the registered owners address, so I am guessing if there was a different developer, they would own the property and use their own address? Tack has done a lot of cool projects. Everything from the Tri-Faith center to their own office building in Benson.

Oh for sure, no doubt they can put something very well designed on this lot.Brad wrote: ↑Fri Jan 26, 2024 7:23 pmTack has done a lot of cool projects. Everything from the Tri-Faith center to their own office building in Benson.

SO have Walgreen's and CVS fallen out of favor to be on this list?S.O.Boy wrote: ↑Sat Jan 27, 2024 12:47 amHopefully not a Starbucks, Mega Saver, or a car wash.Louie wrote: ↑Fri Jan 26, 2024 7:24 pmOh for sure, no doubt they can put something very well designed on this lot.Brad wrote: ↑Fri Jan 26, 2024 7:23 pmTack has done a lot of cool projects.

Wow - IF either of those could fit there it would be a terrible use of the space. Hopefully that's some sarcasm at its finest right there!nebugeater wrote: ↑Mon Jan 29, 2024 5:10 pmSO have Walgreen's and CVS fallen out of favor to be on this list?S.O.Boy wrote: ↑Sat Jan 27, 2024 12:47 amHopefully not a Starbucks, Mega Saver, or a car wash.Louie wrote: ↑Fri Jan 26, 2024 7:24 pmOh for sure, no doubt they can put something very well designed on this lot.Brad wrote: ↑Fri Jan 26, 2024 7:23 pmTack has done a lot of cool projects.

It's kind of funny, that lot is zoned GC, and the lots to the north and west are all R4. The lot is only 40' wide, but when you are GC next to R4, you need a 30' landscape buffer, only leaving you 10'.

I don't think CVS is not doing stand alone anymore.nebugeater wrote: ↑Mon Jan 29, 2024 5:10 pmSO have Walgreen's and CVS fallen out of favor to be on this list?S.O.Boy wrote: ↑Sat Jan 27, 2024 12:47 amHopefully not a Starbucks, Mega Saver, or a car wash.Louie wrote: ↑Fri Jan 26, 2024 7:24 pmOh for sure, no doubt they can put something very well designed on this lot.Brad wrote: ↑Fri Jan 26, 2024 7:23 pmTack has done a lot of cool projects.
