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 lower 3 floors
(LL, street and 2nd floors) in connection with their adjacent fitness facilities,
and the Arter Group purchased the upper 8 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,

for sales information. Our on-site managers 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, please contact our resident manager at 402-474-7167 our contact
our main office for information on units available for purchase. Our
on-site managers 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 on 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, and Wright's Jewelry, among others.
With a direct connection
via a private skywalk to University Square, your private, reserved
parking space is just steps away, protected from inclement weather.

on units available for purchase, please contact our office at 477-9300.

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.
