A 2,334 square foot building reminiscent of the days when Mesa, Arizona was a major grain producer is up for $3 million.
The F.P. Nielson & Sons Tower was built in 1938 and is, at 100 feet in height, one of the most identifiable historic industry structures in southern Arizona.
The building for decades functioned as a grain elevator before being sold to an out of state interest and eventually closed.
Listed with the Scottsdale offices of Sotheby’s International Realty, the structure is regarded as a Class C building and sits within a defined Opportunity Zone.
Cities throughout the West with still-existing flour mills and grain silos have taken steps to preserve and repurpose them, with the most notable example being the Hayden Flour Mill in Tempe, dating to 1918.
Earlier this year the City of Tempe entered negotiations with a private entity to redevelop that structure and site.
