A neighboring business, Wholesale Tire Company, purchased the lot and building in 2013 because they needed more room for inventory and work space. The building was inspected and found to be losing structural integrity. The business decided it would be too large an investment to incorporate the building into their expansion plans. The building was scheduled to be demolished.[2]
