WATERTOWN â A Newell Street apartment building and the building that houses the Flashback Brewing Company soon will be changing hands, thanks to loans from the Watertown Local Development Corp.
The local development corporation, also known as the Watertown Trust, on Thursday approved a $225,000 loan to Jacob S. âJakeâ Johnson and three other local businessmen so they can purchase the Riverview Apartments, 497 Newell St.
In a separate transaction, Vishal Sudera, an owner of a nearby convenience store, is in the process of purchasing the building that houses the Flashback Brewing Company and an adjacent structure on State Street that includes four apartments and two storefronts.
