The original plans remain intact for the Birmingham Building at 214 N. Liberty St., in downtown Jackson.
“It is still a go, and we’re continuing to work on it,” Hal Crocker, Crocker Construction Co., said. “We’re authorized to do exterior work … install new windows, and the interior is still in design.”
Crocker owns Crocker Construction Co., and is a co-developer of Jackson Walk.
Phil Martin, a restaurateur in Nashville owns the 22,000-square-foot Birmingham Building, and purchased an adjacent 4,000-square-foot building next door at 212 N. Liberty St., that once housed Yesterday’s Antiques.
Constructed in 1908, the Birmingham Building will have an upscale restaurant, wine bar and 20-room hotel.
Part of the renovation is to maintain the interior of the building, such as the doors and hardwood floors.
