The New Hope Zoning Hearing Board will listen to presentations regarding two significant projects at its Aug. 7 meeting.
Up first, Nick Gialias, formerly of the Logan Inn, will be looking for approval of his new West Mechanic Street restaurant featuring spirit/food pairings. Named ‘Nektar,’ the menu will feature an exotic list of wines, beers and whiskeys to complement specially selected tapas and cold plates.
The Nektar project uses land from two different properties, one of which, along the banks of Ingham Creek, would be leased from a neighboring property owner. Main features of the renovation are an addition to the second floor, and adding the ability to enclose the rear porch during inclement or cold weather.
Next, the Zoning Hearing Board will hear from representatives of the Bucks County Playhouse, who want to “permit the erection of a tent that is greater than 800 square feet in size and to allow it to remain on the property for more than three days for any one event and more than fifteen days per calendar year.” Playhouse officials say the tent will provide greater flexibility in accommodating special events.
The structure will probably utilize some parking and sidewalk space. Also requested: a large sign over the Playhouse’s main entrance, similar to one Playhouse officials say existed during the 1970s.
The meeting will be held at 7 p.m. in the Community Room next to Borough Hall at 125 New Street.
