Proposed Bauer property redevelopment plans show twin to historic tavern, contemporary new Mesh restaurant Friday, Feb 15 2013 

From Insider Louisville
By Terry Boyd | Published: February 14, 2013
 

Last week, we told you the outcome of how – or whether – the Bauer property in East Louisville gets redeveloped hangs on plans that were still in development.

Today, our sources forwarded plans the property owner began releasing  yesterday, detailed renderings by Studio A Architecture of Louisville called “elevation plans.”

Those renderings seem – a dangerous word – to conform to what developers promised and what residents demand.

As we reported, the Bauer family who owns the property on Brownsboro Road just east of Crescent Hill Golf Course wants to replace the vacant Azalea restaurant with a medical office and add a new restaurant on a parcel just east of the Azalea building.

While the developer contends the original building can’t be saved, his attorney told IL redevelopment of the site –  which dates back to a 19th Century blacksmith and wagon repair stop – will respect the historic nature of the property.
