GRAND ISLAND, Neb. (AP) — The Grand Island City Council has authorized $236,000 in tax-increment financing to redevelop the former Masonic Temple downtown into a multi-use high-rise.

The authorization was approved Tuesday night.

Regional Planning Director Chad Nabity says the first floor of the building will be used for retail space, including a boutique scheduled to move in next week. The second through sixth floors will be used for office or apartment space. The seventh floor will be reserved for a restaurant.
