May 3—With officials and several small business owners touting the positive "momentum" taking hold in Marysville recently, that push toward progress took another step forward Tuesday night with an approval by the city council to help bring a new apartment complex to downtown.
Unanimously approved Tuesday during the Marysville City Council meeting was a Disposition and Development Agreement, or DDA, for what will be called The Nakagawa — a 10-unit, two-story building that will be situated at 308 C St., next to Cisco's Taqueria.
In March of 2021, the former Nakagawa Co. building at 306 C St. was demolished. According to Appeal archives, the building had been vacant for at least 20 years and was considered by many as a local landmark. Several years prior, there was an effort to save the building originally built in 1857, which was in need of significant repairs. Those efforts, however, were unsuccessful, the Appeal previously reported.
