160 W Grand Avenue Arco, ID 83213

Seller may be open to carrying a portion of the purchase price*** A year prior to the arrival of the railroad in Arco, Idaho (1901), men locally sourced the stone to build this fascinating 3 level structure. In its 121-year lifetime, the building has served as a general store (J.E. SMITH & CO.) a Texaco station, a barber shop, a residence, but most of all, a staple of the community. In essence, this building “is” Arco. It has witnessed the entire lifetime of the small town. The main and upper levels of the building are open and bright, and the original tin ceilings remain intact. The current owner began clean up on the property 3 years ago, and now this local monolith is prepared for a new adventure. The essence of the past is palpable within these stone walls and the seller, and his realtor (both lifelong residents of Arco) would really like to see this gentle giant renewed and revitalized so the community can once again enjoy it.
