From Crystal Club Soda to Gertrude Hawk Chocolate

Businessman Gerry Donahue told The Times-Tribune on Saturday he has purchased the Lackawanna Avenue building that has sat mostly empty since the former gas company built the $16 million structure in 2005.  The news was met with enthusiasm by Mayor Chris Doherty and Greater Scranton Chamber of Commerce President Austin Burke.  Mr. Doherty called the building the best in Northeast Pennsylvania and said the purchase was another example of businesses investing in the downtown.  [Times-Tribune]
