Phase I construction begins on Hotel Garber project

February 24, 2023

Phase I construction has commenced on the Hotel Garber project which will result in the adaptive reuse of a downtown building for the creation of a twenty-eight room boutique hotel in the heart of downtown Red Cloud. Located in the historic Potter-Wright building next door to the Willa Cather Foundation’s Farmers and Merchants Bank, the hotel will be named after Silas Garber, a founder of Red Cloud and the prototype for Captain Forrester in Cather’s A Lost Lady. As of this writing, nearly $6.4 million has been raised, mostly through generous donations, grants, tax credits, and investments. Current project costs are estimated to be around $7.3 million. Substantial work, including the readdition of the 3rd floor, is anticipated to be complete by late Summer 2023 with construction likely to be completed in 2024.
