A hotel and condominium project that will incorporate the restoration of the historic Cedars building downtown was unanimously approved by the Hendersonville Planning Board Monday.
City Council will give the final approval of the project. Tamara Peacock, with Tamara Peacock Architects, told the board the project has been “well-received” by the neighborhood. In recent months she and her team have perfected the design and added a lot more detail.
The Cedars, now a four-story building, will be fully restored to at least two stories.
“We really wanted to save The Cedars,” Peacock said. “It gives us an opportunity to preserve The Cedars fully.”
