Full-time home for Annapolis Boat Shows
Annapolis Boat Shows is one of four tenants that have reserved space in the renovated building.
In January, the building’s co-owners John Bruno and Mike Keenan hoped to complete construction on the project by midsummer. That timeline has come and gone — this past Monday, Bruno said it will be a few more months before tenants get their keys.
Annapolis Boat Shows was a perfect fit, he said. “There’s not a better location for them, and there’s not a better tenant for us.”
Bruno said he and Keenan are committed to keeping 40 percent of the building as maritime-related use.
Chesapeake Whalertowne’s Eastport location will also move into the building along with North Sails, an apparel property residing in Harbor Square. A national tenant who declined to be publicly named has also been secured, Bruno said.
There is still space available in the 40 percent of the building dedicated to maritime-related shops, officials said.
A restaurant with rooftop and dockside dining is still planned for the building. The owners have been interviewing tenants, Bruno said.
“We’ve been interviewing all up and down the East Coast. Hopefully we’ll be making a selection in the next couple of months,” he said.
The remaining 60 percent of the building could be entirely a restaurant, or a combination of uses, Bruno said.
