The casual fine dining restaurant that closed late last year at 700 1st Ave. N., where it had operated for about a decade, now plans to reopen at the end of this year in the new Block E complex, which is being built at Main Avenue and Eighth Street in Moorhead.

That's according to McKenzy Olson, marketing director for Epic Companies.

Olson said Usher's House will occupy about 3,100 square feet of space on the ground floor of Block E, which has a total of about 10,000 square feet.

Eventide Senior Living Communities corporate headquarters will occupy the second floor and the third and fourth floors will hold 12 apartments, eight of which will be two stories. Tenants will be able to park underground.
