Bruce Magnotti is a restoration contractor and has won numerous local, and regional awards, and national recognition for his restoration of many Washington homes and commercial buildings. His most recent project is the the purchase of the Old Ellensburg Hospital built in 1918 which housed the Washington State Archives from the time the hospital relocated until Central Washington University decided to sell the building in 1999. He also restored the Shoudy Mansion; a historic Queen Anne Victorian home built by the founder of Ellensburg, John Shoudy, for his wife Mary Ellen in 1892. His last project, the brick commercial building known as the Busby Blacksmith Shop, was the first in Kittitas County to qualify as a historic restoration by the National Parks Service and the first to qualify for federal and county tax advantages for historic restoration in the county.
