PORT TOWNSEND — The Landfall Restaurant’s owners are suspending extensive expansion plans and putting the eatery at Point Hudson up for sale.
“We plan to put the project and the restaurant on the market,” said Tony Harriman, who co-owns and operates the business at the marina end of Water Street with his wife, Betty.
“Basically, Betty and I have decided to suspend the Landfall project with the city,” he said, adding that it was personal reasons that led the couple to the decision.
“I have nothing to say but good things about the city or the Port.”
The Harrimans received accolades from Port of Port Townsend commissioners in December when they presented architect Richard Berg’s exterior rendering of a 7,000-square-foot expansion design overlooking Point Hudson Marina.
The restaurant, bar and sundecks were to be upstairs, with about 3,500 square feet of space for marine-related lease space below.
The expansion’s construction was to be timed with the Port’s $2.3 million Point Hudson Marina renovation, tentatively planned for October, and with the construction of the Northwest Maritime Center, across Water Street from the restaurant.
Harriman said much of the work to gain city permit approvals has been done, so a new owner could move forward with relative ease.
