Brown of Stewart Investments owns the parcel and applied for a zoning review following the demolition of the previous building.
According to a zoning application from the city of Dayton, the owners proposed opening a Dutch Bros Coffee shop on the property.
The application indicates the store would be 1,600 square feet, with a drive-thru, indoor dining and outdoor seating.
This coffee company is headquartered in Oregon and was founded in 1992.
According to the website, there are approximately 950 stores spread across 18 states.
The potential Brown Street location would be the first Dutch Bros Coffee in Ohio.
University of Dayton students told News Center 7 they are happy to hear a new business may be coming to Brown Street.
“I hope the coffee shop does what it’s supposed to do. Like, I hope it attracts people, people go there and get business. I hope Starbucks doesn’t take over all the business. Nothing else,” said freshman Deliquane Bush.
This proposed project is still in its early stages and no timeline has been set.
A preliminary zoning review has just taken place and no approvals or permits have been issued.
News Center 7 will continue to follow this story.
