The former Oddfellows building, at 2103 Main St., in downtown Washougal, is the potential future site of a tap room/restaurant, commercial space and three apartments. City of Washougal planning, engineering and fire staff are reviewing final site and engineering plans that were submitted last week.

The future renovation of a historic building could bring new life to a sleepy corner of downtown Washougal.

Neil and Corinne Lorch are proposing the restoration of the former Independent Order of Oddfellows building, constructed in 1908, at 2103 Main St. They want to convert the first floor, previously occupied by Hewitt Homeschooling, to be a tap room/restaurant as well as space for commercial use.
