hopefully not office space and maybe retail or restaurant.

Very likely a restaurant/bar, since the old Drafters was on the first floor of that building.  Much of the work for something like that to open is already done.

New apartments in old Garment District warehouse

The former Burnham-Hanna-Munger Manufacturing Co. building at 323 W. Eighth St. has been transformed into what’s being called Lucas Place Lofts. The first residents of the 130-unit building are expected to begin moving in March 1.

The designers have retained the heavy wood timbers and industrial-style windows of the massive eight-story brick building and added a few contemporary flourishes. Its original use was as a warehouse for jobbers who specialized in wholesale trade and selling to retailers throughout the Great Plains region.
