" It's easier to raise strong children,than to restore broken men"!
Great News!!!!!! Renovations are scheduled to begin in the very near future on the former building known as Gus's Bar. Stay tuned for more information.
Introduction
The City of York Redevelopment Authority is soliciting proposals for design re-uses for 594-596 West
Princess Street, which formerly had a nuisance bar on the first floor. Originally constructed in 1882, this
corner structure has six single residency units on the second floor. According to current York County tax
records, the assessed value of this 6,012 square foot, three-story structure is $90,460 (i.e., $14,590 for
land and $75,470 for building). The parcel identification number is 09-225-06-0020.00-00000. Please
see enclosed Addenda A for area parcel map.
Since this is a key structure in the Salem Square Redevelopment Area, a partnership between the YMCA,
the City of York, the Salem Square Neighborhood Association, and faith-based institutions, the
Redevelopment Authority is seeking a design re-use plan that accommodates anchor tenants and uses in
the neighborhood -- tenants and uses that build neighborhood trust, communication, solidarity, and
pride.
Although the neighborhood has seven faith-based institutions, two corner stores and three schools
within walking distance of 594-596 West Princess, the neighborhood has a noticeable lack of retail and
commercial uses and a community center, and an obviously lack of productive visible street-front
activity after 5 p.m.
