The Stratford Legion is looking for buyers.  The organization is listing the St. Patrick Street building.

Ken Albert, president of Branch 8 Stratford, says it’s a matter of upkeep costs:

The oldest section of the building was built in the mid-1800s.  He says right now they’re taking their time and exploring their options:

The Legion explored selling their building seven years ago but didn’t get any acceptable offers.  In the meantime Albert is emphasizing that the Legion is not closing, just merely looking for other accommodations.
