MINNEAPOLIS | 116 East Hennepin | 29 floors | 300 feet~
Nye's owner, developer plan to save oldest portions of restaurant
Quote:
The two century-plus buildings in Minneapolis will be moved together, anchoring a retail development beside a new, 29-story apartment tower.
A three-story building with a “Harness Shop” sign atop it and a two-story one that curves around a corner, both more than 100 years old, will be preserved, Ron Jacobs, the owner of Nye’s, and representatives Schafer Richardson, the developer working with him, said at a meeting with neighborhood residents and business owners.
The group plans to move the two buildings together and build other retail and restaurants around them and the new apartment tower. For the time being, the project is being called 116 East Hennepin, for its address just across the Mississippi River from downtown.
