Brewer Tire Shop Building To Undergo ‘Significant Changes’

The landscape of a popular road in Brewer will look a little different in the not-too-distant future. A building that has stood along Wilson Street for years will be torn down soon, to make room for a new structure.

According to Brewer's Economic Development Director, D’arcy Main-Boyington, the wheels are in motion for a handful of other businesses to set up shop where Sullivan Tire & Auto now stands.

"...There are going to be very significant changes happening at the Sullivan Tire site."

One thing that has not changed is that Sullivan Tire is still in the building and open for business. Mark Gillard, who handles marketing for Sullivan Tire, said the company is talking with the property's owner about staying in the new building once it is complete. Or, he said, the company may relocate elsewhere in Brewer.

City of Brewer Planning Director Linda Johns said among other things, that a new coffee shop is one of the businesses folks also can expect to open there.

"...The Brewer Planning Board approved with conditions a site plan to remove the existing building at 541 Wilson Street and construct a new 15,286-square-foot single-story building with associated site improvements. The proposed building would include a coffee shop plus four additional rental units."

John's says the name of the coffee shop has not yet been released.
