PORT TOWNSEND — Kevin Harris’ restoration of the turn-of-the-century waterfront cannery building is almost complete — and he is inviting the public to take a look.
“I want everyone to come down and see what is going on,” Harris said.
What was a rundown brick building behind the Waterman & Katz Building on Monroe Street less than a decade ago is now a state-of-the-art business plaza and condominium building.
Visitors this weekend will see a completed second-story condo — one of the four that will be offered for sale in 2009, Harris hopes — and sections of the commercial boutiques on the first floor.
The building will be open from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. today and Saturday, and from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday, with 15-minute tours offered to all who come by, Harris said.
Two studio and two one-bedroom condos upstairs overlook the Admiralty Inlet.
On the first floor, four commercial locations also will have water views.
Harris, who owns a software company in Seattle, hasn’t settled on a prices for the condos.
“You won’t find a better view in town,” Harris said.
“This is it, right here, with the bay and the mountains.”
Space is available now in the commercial area on the first floor.
