Reported February 13: With potential uses envisioned from musical performances to a hub for nonprofits to a food prep area for farmers market vendors, the Town of Port Royal is trying to acquire The Shed on lower Paris Avenue.
The building's 13,000-square-feet is seen as tool in the near term to spark economic revitalization in the historic area while the town waits for any movement with the much beleaguered sale of the Port of Port Royal land.
