The Old Station Sub Shop in Downtown Phoenix is officially up for sale.The business, which is located near the Arizona State Capitol on Jefferson Street, opened 38 years ago, and the original owner - Joe Faillace - ran the place ever since then.The last few years, however, have not been easy for the sub shop. Tents in the homeless encampment known as ‘The Zone’ surrounded the business, to a point where it was unsafe for customers."When The Zone got cleared.
Our kid was just going into college," Faillace said.Faillace said he will hold onto the property, but would like to sell the eatery for $139,000."We're pretty much giving it away, in my opinion," said Faillace. "The place is a gold mine, if they're going to build an apartment complex there and there, and retail in the middle."Business, meanwhile, has picked up since The Zone cleared out, and there's no sign of it slowing down.
