ENCINITAS — The once cherished 100-year-old building that burnt down in a two-alarm fire over three years ago has been replaced by former tenant Jim Shatto with a modern structure featuring a sizeable exterior mural by local artist Kevin Anderson.
After months of hard work, the Shatto Building, located on the corner of Daphne Street and North Coast Highway 101, is nearing the finish line. The longtime Leucadia business owner is hopeful to open by July 1.
Before the fire, multiple tenants, including Shatto & Sons T-Shirts, Mozy Café, Cali Life and Peace Pies, resided in the building.
“The original building was over a hundred years old, and we were here in our family business for 44 years before it burned down,” Shatto said.
The family t-shirt business will not be reopening at the new location, but Shatto has confirmed three tenants have already agreed to move into the building this summer.
Peace Pies, Leucadia Barbershop, and a yet-to-be-determined restaurant from Encinitas-based entrepreneur Mario Guerra, owner of Corner Pizza, Moto Deli, and Valentina, will all be tenants in the new location.

DeleteHmmm, that's funny I could've sworn a certain gentleman (Stan) was bragging about how he destroyed EU and it was done? So much for the victory laps heh?
ReplyDeleteplease don't mention the Encinitas curse. Lets try to have a nice day.
DeleteHis definition of “winning” seems to be a lot different than everyone else’s. He set the bar very low, in what most of us would consider losing territory.
DeleteBest of luck to Shatto!

DeleteJim and Ryan, congrats on dealing with all the trials and tribulations the city put you through. While your t-shirt silkscreen and airbrush business, and being able stop by and say hi will be missed, we know where to go if we need anything. Nice wall!!!!!!
