Historic building rejuvenated into multi-business hub

SCOTTSBLUFF, Neb. (KNEP) - Multi-business historic building in Downtown Scottsbluff is set to draw more traffic into the area.

Powerhouse Social, a “fresh spin on a pub classic”, is set to be managed by local chef Sam Rodriguez with much of an anticipated wait.

The first floor will occupy Powerhouse Social, while the second floor will utilize office suites, finally floors 3-4 will provide extended stay suites (coming soon). This Art-deco four story building was once considered a “jewel of Scottsbluff’s Downtown District.”

Chef Sam Rodriguez says “Powerhouse Social is an American Cuisine scratch kitchen and so everything is made daily. We make the hamburger meat to everything you see on the line here.”

Sy Ali Vice President of food and beverage says “I would just like to say thanks to the owners Dave and Kerri Schaff for coming up with this concept. This is not just for them but for the town of Scottsbluff and maybe a little bit more so. I think this will be a great gathering place, it is going to revitalize the Downtown area and it will definitely help with the food and beverage scene in Scottsbluff.”

Here is a fun fact, the restaurant was named Powerhouse Social because back when the building was in operation. Western Public Service Company merged with Consumer Power and years later it became what it is today according to Kerri Schaff co-owner of Powerhouse Social.

Powerhouse Social has an opening date of January 30th.
