Desirable corner location at the intersections in Winchester. Loudoun St., Gerrard Street (Handley Boulevard) and Valley Avenue intersect at this point. This is historic Gaunts Drug store where Patsy Cline worked as a teenager. The building still maintains the old drug store charm with the counters, shelving and even the soda fountain benches in place. Little has changed since Patsy worked here for Hunter Gaunt. There is approximately 3990 square of space in the drug store.
In 2015, according to Chmura Economics & Analysis, the Winchester MSA will lead the State in employment, wages and building permit growth. Winchester is one of the six MSAs identified in the State as recovered from the recession. Winchester has one of the top 5% hospitals in the nation. Shenandoah Universitys diverse curriculum in the arts, medicine and business contributes to a most favorable community influence. As quoted in Southern Business and Development magazine, Winchester was named as one of the Ten Strong Economies You May Not Have Noticed. Winchester continues to be in the path of progress out of Washington, DC with commuters, major industrial firms and federal agencies such as FEMA and FBI locating here. The immediate Interstate system and the Inland Port encourage continued industrial and distribution growth.
