VERO BEACH — A historic building in the heart of downtown Vero Beach has been tented for termites, according to city manager Jim O’Connor.

The entire two-story building was recently covered with a tent so the building can be treated for termites. O’Connor said he’s not sure when it will reopen.

He said his office hasn’t received any complaints from residents at the complex.

 

 

The building, located at 1414 21st Street, was renovated in 2002 and 2003 by the Haggerty Family, according to its website. It was built in 1923 and is across from Pocahontas Park.

The apartments inside the building are located upstairs while businesses, which also are closed, are downstairs.

Those businesses are Italian Kitchen, John Eisinger’s Photography Shop, Bodega Blue Cafe, Swingsation Dance Cafe, Dojo Karate School, His and Hers Beauty Salon, Vero Vacuum, Veteran’s Realty and Coast to Coast Shutters.
