825 Main Street (labelled)
Manna Vegetarian Deli owner Eric Lusain is planning on creating loft apartments on the third and fourth floors of 825 Main Street.
Two lofts will be created, each 2,300 square feet. For $1,500 per month, renters will get wide open floor plans, whirlpool tubs, stainless steel appliances and granite countertops.
825 Main Street is the former home of Carol's on Main, which closed in September 2005. Union Station Video Cafe also briefly filled the space.
Lusain has been doing business downtown since 2002. Having closed Manna as a retail establishment, Lusain is now involved in school lunch catering and real estate development.
His most recent project is the Manna Lofts at 633 Main Street, where rents are between $1,100 and $1,300 for the three units.
Lusain's properties can be seen at www.lusain.com.

These little projects can make a tremendous impact on an urban environment. When you're walking along that stretch of Main Street you just don't feel like the area has "it." Hopefully more projects like this follow in the basin, ridding it of the abandoned upper floors of many buildings of this scale.
Personally I'm tired of seeing these spaces wasted on storage and/or nothing at all.
Amen.
Great to hear this, but I wonder what happened to Manna.
^ I dunno. Maybe he was just burned out or something.
If there are renters for these kinds of units, it's surely more lucrative than schlepping garden burgers and miso soup.
