Building for sale, but Seven Stars owners say they’re tied to Pawtucket
The old Major Electric building on High Street has been listed as available, and its owners, who had planned to bring a Seven Stars bakery there, are now reassessing their options.
PAWTUCKET – Owners of the old Major Electric building at 111 High Street are making it available in a possible sale, but they say that does not mean they plan to abandon plans for a new Seven Stars bakery here.
Bill and Tracy Daugherty purchased the building across from Pawtucket City Hall for $1,137,500 in January 2020, but they told The Breeze more than a month ago that the pandemic had hindered their progress in creating the new bakery space and offices, where they planned to expand to from an existing Pawtucket space at the Hope Artiste Village on Main Street.

Owners re-engaging on downtown Seven Stars Bakery
The Seven Stars Bakery would be located in the old Major Electric building, pictured in the foreground across from Pawtucket City Hall.
PAWTUCKET – More than a year after the City Council passed a tax treaty with the owners of Seven Stars Bakery smoothing the path for a new bakery across from Pawtucket City Hall, those owners say they’re getting the gears of their project back into motion.
“We put things on hold when the pandemic hit but have recently re-engaged with the architects and designers,” said Bill Daugherty, who owns the bakery with his wife, Tracy. “We’ll know a lot more in a month or so once the cost estimates start coming in.”
