Suwanee’s Downtown Development Authority has sold one of the city’s oldest commercial buildings to a business focused on constructing, remodeling and retrofitting buildings using “green” practices.

Deming LLC agreed to a 50-year lease-to-purchase price of nearly $259,000 for the two-story Pierce’s Corner building, which was built in 1910.

Pierce’s Corner, which is located at 597 Main Street, was most recently an antique shop. The building has also been a general store, cotton gin, grocery store, dentist office and silent movie theater.
