The Old Smirlis Bakery is the original location to this half a decade long family business that thrived on Lemon St and eventually expanded to adjoining properties.. This building and its former uses are the epitome of live, work play and the encouraged mixed use zoning that exists today.. Originally a home and a bakery, half of the structure was used for residential with hardwood floors and bead board walls. The other half was more commercially oriented with stamped octagonal concrete floors and a huge brick oven! The brick oven is honestly a show piece and someone would be smart to incorporate this into an adaptive re-use of the space. The building originally had a 2nd story balcony which would be a welcomed re addition to the facade.. There is a separate 50x125 foot lot that fronts on Ring Ave a stones throw from the building.. This could be used as a parking lot or redeveloped into a mixed use building in the downtown. Zoned T4b in the city's special area plan this building/property has a huge amount of flexibility as it relates to mixed uses, also theres a lot of flexibility in regard to set backs and parking requirements. The property is also located in the CRA(community redevelopment district) which has three different matching grant offering.. 15K for facade improvements, 10K code assistance, and $7,500 for restaurant conversion.. Not only is this building a piece of Tarpon history it is also one of the last remaining opportunities for someone to buy an urban core "fixer upper building" in one of the fastest redeveloping communities in Pinellas County.
