There has been plenty of “new” on New Hampshire Street lately, and now we have pictures to go with the latest proposed development along the downtown corridor. As we reported last month, a group led by Lawrence businessman Doug Compton is planning to build four stories on top of the former Pachamama’s restaurant building at Eighth and New Hampshire streets. The group now has filed its plans with City Hall.

The plans show pretty much what Compton described last month when he confirmed that he had reached a deal to purchase the building: The ground floor will remain available for restaurant or retail uses, while the four new floors built atop the building will house 55 apartments. The project will include a mix of studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom units. Plans call for 42 percent of the project to be studio units, while 29 will be devoted to one-bedroom units and 29 percent to two-bedroom units.

But you didn’t come here to do math. You want to see what the building will look like.

Take a look at the picture below. It is what the building will look like if you are standing in the intersection of Eighth and New Hampshire. (Why are you standing in the intersection of Eighth and New Hampshire, by the way?)

This one below shows what the northern facade of the building will look like.

This rendering below shows the western face of the building, which is the portion that has frontage along New Hampshire Street. You’ll notice that the plan calls for the building to be expanded over the little parking area that exists to the south of the building.

Lawrence-based Treanor Architects — which has done the design for the the multistory apartment building and the new Marriott hotel building at Ninth and New Hampshire streets — is the designer on this project. The company also has designed the new multistory apartment/office building that is under construction at the northeast corner of Ninth and New Hampshire, which is also a project led by Compton.

Compton has said he wants to have the Pachamama’s project under construction this summer. The project will have to win some approvals — primarily for its design — from City Hall. Thus far, I’ve seen no request for financial incentives from the city. Compton has used tax increment financing and some other incentives on the hotel project and the new apartment project underway at the northeast corner of Ninth and New Hampshire. But both of those projects involved constructing a new underground parking garage, which added considerable expense to the projects. Compton is not proposing a parking garage as part of this project. Downtown zoning codes don’t require the project to provide any off-street parking, and thus far the plans call for the building to rely on parking options that already exist in the downtown area.
