I saw this earlier but didn't have time to post. Â They did a great job of redesigning the exterior to blend in with the area, the old white facade is pretty ugly.
The bulk of the renovation will occur in "The Outback," which will be divided into two separate rooms: a large nightclub with a dance floor and elevated seating and "Barry's 10 Below," a martini bar with its own entrance and a bar made of ice.
I thought at one point they were going to build a 2nd ped bridge from Haymarket Park and that parking was being expanded there. Â Not sure if that is still happening or not.
I used to go to the Haymarket area a lot when I was in school in Lincoln. Â It had plenty of foot traffic then. Â Can only imagine how much more it will have now.
Outstanding. Â What is the status of the superblocks part? Â Between the current Haymarket, the new area, the arena, Breslow Ice Complex, Haymarket ball park, etc., this is an unbelievable area. Â A few more hotels are needed and will come with time, but very well done.

The breslow center is actually one of the few things on the map where it is not clear whether it will be at that location, or even built at all. Also, there are a couple of new hotels going in the Haymarket as of now.
"The Yard" is the superblock part of the project which from all indications will be a go, here is a pic of it:
Here is a pic of one of the hotels, it is topped out and should be open pretty soon:
Hotel Sign? Funny name for a hotel. Right up there with the Hotel Deco. Next door will be the Restaurant Eat?
There was some article about six months ago talking about moving locations, but since then there has been nothing and its unclear where they are at with the project.
Just thought people should know that barrys rooftop looks close to being complete. Â Outside facade looks real sharp with the brick and black trim work. Â Black iron fence surrounding the rooftop seems to fit that haymarket/old railyard feel. Â I'm sure the Haymarket district had a part in that with the new entertainment area being named "The Railyard" and not just 'the yard' as before. Â Here is another rendering of the rooftop. Â Looks nearly identical in real life to what this shows: Â
the club portion of barrys on the west side is called 10 below and i was there yesterday and its actually quite nice. reminds me of a larger and more upscale mainstreet.
