Condominiums
The Arter Group
provides property management services for a number of luxury condominium
properties, most of which were developed, designed and renovated by one or
more of our affiliated companies.
In downtown Lincoln:
Georgian Place 139 North 11th Street
This certified historic renovation of the former Capital Hotel was completed
in 1983, when the building was also listed on the National Register of
Historic Places. The Arter Group was called by the YMCA in 1982 to
examine options, and to create possible solutions, in response to growing
losses from their hotel operation. It was eventually decided to
create a condominium property, and for the Y to retain portions of the first
2 floors in connection with their adjacent fitness facilities, and the
Arter Group purchased the upper 9 floors. All of the space on the
upper floors was gutted, except for the structural elements, and completely
renovated in accordance with historical guidelines, creating high quality
"new" housing in downtown Lincoln
for the first time in over a decade. Complete new elevators and
mechanical and electrical systems were installed, with high efficiency
water source electric heat pumps, the monthly electrical bills for these
condominiums remain very low year round.
Residents are also invited to become
members of the YMCA, with convenient, direct access through a private keyed
entrance (from the "secure" inner Georgian Place lobby), to use the
YMCA "club" facilities when they are open. Ready for a
morning swim, or maybe a workout on their complete line of fitness
equipment? Condominiums may be leased or purchased.
For further information on leasing,

will promptly respond to your questions, and also arrange a private showing
at your convenience.
CenterStone 100 North 12th Street
Another of our certified historic projects, this renovation of the former Anderson Building was completed in
1986. This building was previously listed on the National
Register of Historic Places, and originally, was known as the Burr Block,
built as a 5 story building in 1900. This structure was totally
rebuilt in 1922 by the Security Mutual Life Insurance Company, when they
completely disassembled the stone, vertically one half at a time, and
reassembled and added additional matching stone and created their
"new" 11 story office headquarters.
The Arter Group purchased the
building in 1985, and planned a mixed use project on the basis that both
office users and residents alike would enjoy the direct skywalk connection
to parking facilities in the adjacent Rampark garage. Based on the
overwhelming response to the "new" Georgian Place condominiums since it
was first occupied in 1984, we decided to create luxury a condominium
property, with a landscaped deck and outdoor living space on the rooftop,
again involving the members of our "Group" of companies in design
and construction of this exciting project. All of the space in the
building was gutted, again except for the structural elements, and
completely renovated in accordance with historical guidelines, creating
luxury "new" housing units on floors 3 and 4th, and also on
floors 6 through 11 with "Class A" offices on the remaining floors.
In addition to the a common area rooftop garden, complete with barbecue
grills, a private terrace is adjacent to the penthouse suite on the top
floor. Several other CenterStone condominiums have their own private
outdoor patio area, and all of them offer private laundry facilities within
the apartments. Don't forget the private skyway over to Rampark,
where we are able to arrange parking by the month for your
convenience.
Many of these condominiums were
professionally decorated for a "Showcase" fundraising event (and
featured in a national magazine display), and offer wood floors, and other
design amenities.
Complete new elevators and
mechanical and electrical systems were again installed, with high
efficiency water source electric heat pumps, the monthly electrical bills
for these condominiums are extremely low making CenterStone an affordable
luxury living option. Condominiums may be leased or purchased.
For further information on leasing
or information on units available for purchase please contact
us. Our friendly associates will promptly respond to your
questions, and also arrange a private showing at your convenience.
University Towers 128
North 13th Street
This renovation of the former Stuart
Building was commenced
by Larry Price in 1988. The building was listed on the National
Register of Historic Places in 2003, and still retains many of the design
features that once made this building one of the most prestigious office
locations in the Midwest. To recall
that it was built in 1929 using a one paragraph contract between James
Stuart Sr and Carl Olson makes one smile, in respect to them.
This renovated structure also
provides convenient parking next door, and contains 66 luxury, one and two
bedroom, condominiums on the upper ten floors, and also many fine
businesses on the lower floors, including the Rococo Theatre , Barrymore's Bar
and Grille.
With a direct connection via private
skywalk to University Square,
your private, reserved parking space is just steps away, protected from
inclement weather.

available for purchase, please contact us.

In Grand Island;
The Yancey; 123
North Locust Street
Grand Island's oldest and most
prestigious address. This former luxury 11 story hotel is listed on
the National Register of Historic Places. Construction of the hotel began
in 1917 and was completed in 1923 following a pause in the construction due
to material shortages and economic stress following World War I.
Completed and furnished at a cost of $300,000 it was leased to William Yancey
by Banker's Realty Trust. The Yancey Hotel, with it's Grand Ballroom,
continental dining and Governor's Suite, was "the" center of
entertainment, society and business in central Nebraska for decades. Following
it's closure in 1982, the building was purchased and completely renovated
by The Arter Group in 1984 and, over a two year period, we completely
renovated the building with total replacement of all mechanical, electrical
and interior construction in accordance with historical guidelines.
Several prominent commercial
businesses anchor the lower levels including the Equitable Building
and Loan Association and KGIN Television. The 57 residential
condominiums located on the top 8 floors include 12 spacious two bedroom
units, and 45 one bedroom condos, with eleven different floor plans
decorated in traditional oak woodwork and cabinetry.
Several of the condos located on the
third floor enjoy curved french doors opening to the outdoors, restored to
the original design, and taller ceilings. In addition, the ballroom
known as the Gold Room on 3rd floor was used to create "The
Commons", as a special place for family gatherings, or just playing
cards, for the enjoyment of all the residents. We even found the
original chandeliers, now restored to their full grandeur, with new
crystals form Europe. Several top
floor units also have the unique curved window designs. Just wait
till you see the view!
Convenient, secure parking is
available in the adjacent enclosed parking facility in addition to free
outdoor parking in the adjacent city ramp.
