Northeast Investment Co-op

NEIC has begun renovation of the building it purchased in May 2013 at 2506 Central Avenue. (Recovery Bike Shop bought the adjacent building, 2504 Central, from NEIC.) Demolition at the 2506 building began on September 17, though completion will require additional funds acquired via increased membership.  Request details by sending a note to info@neic.coop.
Two businesses–Aki’s Bread Haus and Fair State Brewing Co-operative–have signed leases to occupy the north and south portions, respectively, of the 2506 building.
