New Paint, No New Tenant

Just sprucing up the exterior


Darn. I thought I had a scoop. Last Friday, when I noticed that part of the Oyster Bay Plaza is being repainted (see photo), I thought that we might be getting a new business soon at 4205 Kitsap Way in Bremerton. That would be news as the space has been vacant for years. But in a call to the Bradley-Scott agent who is trying to lease the space, I learned that he hasn’t found a new tenant. The owner is just freshening the building a bit.

The retail space in the photo is in the same building as the QFC. It was occupied by Rite-Aid until about five years ago, when Rite-Aid moved to its own building a few hundred yards east of there. It’s not the only empty space in the Oyster Bay Plaza. Blockbuster left a big space to fill when it closed last fall. I just hope that new tenants are found in time to bring in additional customers to help keep the QFC open. Their sales seem to have gone off a cliff since Win Foods opened last year.

  1. Maybe it will encourage someone to move in.
