What we need to do is look toward the future and get Avila back on its feet. San Luis Grocery will be among the first businesses to return, although it's not clear whether it will still be a grocery store. The building will be moved back to its old Front Street location. According to James Caruso, the foundation has already been poured, and the structure will be in place by mid-June. Sea Barn will likely be next.
Price hopes to be open for business next spring.
We started before they ever did demolition. His two buildings were among the 23 destroyed. Price continues to sell swimsuits and beachwear at a new Sea Barn location in the Wal-Mart shopping center in Arroyo Grande. Plans for both the new Sea Barn in Avila Beach and the new Custom House building call for residential apartments as part of the commercial building. According to Caruso, this may start a trend for commercial properties in the area.
