Rebuilding gets started on Basnight's restaurant
NAGS HEAD (AP) - The rebuilding of the restaurant owned by state Senate leader Marc Basnight has begun, with the lot cleared and graded and some pilings sunk for the foundation.
An investigation into the May 1 fire at Basnight’s Lone Cedar Cafe continues even as the Nags Head Board of Commissioners has approved a site plan for the new building.
The restaurant, soundside on the Nags Head-Manteo causeway, was in its 12th season when it burned to the ground. No one was injured, but about 100 people were left jobless.
Demolition and foundation permits were issued the day after the fire, said Ronnie Ballance, Nags Head’s chief building inspector. The demolition permit was closed May 18.
A sign on the Lone Cedar Cafe site says the restaurant will reopen late summer.
