Currently leased by the City of Fredericksburg for The Visitor Center and the Economic Development and Tourism Office for up to 24 months as they build out their new location, this gives the new owner time to plan and get approved any new construction while it is fully leased. Built in 1824 and used originally as a confectionary shop and residence, there were extensive renovations done in 1975 and designated as the "Bicentennial Center"! The front of the building consists of three levels with the visitors center on the main floor and two floors of office space above.

The 14 space parking lot creates lots of opportunity for creative use of space.The EDA is extending the offer deadline to 5 pm on Wednesday, February 8th.
