Worldwide Auction Realty Services to Auction Historic Daytona Beach Greyhound Bus Station


ORLANDO- Worldwide Auction Realty Services will auction the historic former Greyhound bus station at 150 W. International Speedway Blvd. in Daytona Beach on Thursday, Feb. 25 starting at 5:00 p.m.

The over 10,000 square foot building, constructed in 1947, was designed by architect W.S. Arrasmith in the Streamline Moderne style, a popular offshoot of the art deco style characteristic of Florida architecture from the 1930s through the 1950s.

Lori Chipps, co-managing director and lead auctioneer with Worldwide Auction Realty Services, said the building is suitable for office or retail space and the second floor which includes a spacious outdoor terrace could be modified as a residential component.

The suggested opening bid for the historic building is $295,000. The building was formerly listed for sale at $950,000.

Chipps said the building is currently listed on the National Register of Historic Places and the buyer may qualify for the 20 percent rehabilitation tax credit program for building renovations.
