POLL: Best Fit for Main Street Tavern Building

Patch's Visions for Vacancies asks for reader input on vacant commercial properties

 

For more than a year the former Main Street Tavern has been closed.

State officials revoked the vendor's license for the business and nearly revoked its liquor permit. The owners of the former bar and restaurant also owed thousands of dollars in back taxes.

We want to know what kind of business or use would be a good fit in the building and serve Kent's western neighborhoods well.

Vote in our poll to pick your favorite use, as suggested by Kent Patch readers.

A nice Christian-themed restaurant or soda-shop would be a wonderful place to stop after Sunday service!

A social service agency serving the needs of the West Side, such as a food pantry, walk-in medical clinic, counseling center, etc.
