New restaurant proposed in Swansboro

SWANSBORO | A new restaurant project has been proposed for the Town of Swansboro.

The town planning board will consider an application for construction of The Black Swan Restaurant and Brew Club off Old Hammocks Road near the Hampton Inn during its regular meeting this week.

The meeting will begin at 6 p.m. July 22 in the community room at the Swansboro Town Hall at 601 Corbett Ave.

A Business Planned Building Group application for the restaurant will get its first review during the meeting.

John Freshwater with Crystal Coast Engineering and Ward Farm LLC are proposing the restaurant to be located at 103 Tarry More Ave. The property is zone B-3 and located within the town limits.

The plans submitted for review show a 10,785-square-foot building for the restaurant and brew pub, with areas included for outside seating as well as an outdoor play area. The primary faade faces Old Hammocks Road.

The plans were reviewed by the towns technical review committee, which included comments regarding the various requirements, such as parking and landscaping.

The building size falls within the new 40,000-square-foot building size limit and is proposed to be 30-feet tall, which is lower than the adjacent Hampton Inn.

The project meets parking requirements, with 91 required and 93 provided. However, a waiver has been requested for parking lot interconnection.

The applicants indicated that a request that the restaurants parking lot connect to the hotels was denied by the property owners.
