Shishmaref (AK) properties considered special purpose are typically churches, schools, theaters, agriculture facilities, amusement parks, and cemeteries, for example. Since these types of Shishmaref (AK) properties have a unique floor plan and property layout, finding a another purpose would mean reconstruction, which in some cases is not possible or most Shishmaref (AK) property owners wish to keep the property intact. This type of property is best leased for its original purpose.
