Very nice addition with the MGM Sportsbook-Bar https://www.wcpo.com/nation-kitchen-and-bar-the-banks-bet-mgm-sportsbook I'd bet the space was built out by the sportsbook. I doubt Nation doesn't has that kind of money for those kinds of improvements. Don't get me wrong, Hickory Wald Group has done some nice spaces, but these kinds of buildouts like at The Banks are on a totally different cost level.
January 23, 20241 yr On 1/19/2024 at 10:11 AM, taestell said: Unfortunate that there is no plan for the former Nation in Pendleton (per the CBC): Razzo, Hart & Cru, Pendleton Parlor, and Urbana seem to do really well. Having another bar or restaurant in the former Nation space would really help establish that pedestrianized block of Broadway as a nice NBD. You forgot Lucius Q which also does well at that corner. Razzo went into the previous Boomtown spot pretty quickly. I bet if the Nation group doesn't want to open something else there someone else will.

I do think the Alms Doepke would be a great mixed use project due to its location and size. Hotel, housing, retail. I hope the county gets creative but I'm not holding my breath.
