The Truitt family, longtime stewards of the former cannery site at 1100 to 1400 Front St. NE, announced Sept. 17 that the property would return to the market in the coming weeks.

Stickney and SilverSphere had stepped in after the deal to transform the former cannery north of downtown stalled after the previous developer backed out. A total of almost 800
