Re: Burlington Postal Annex (across from station)
I looked into this pretty closely today and I cant divulge what I learned (which I know is frustrating and hurts my credibility) but I think generally we will all be very pleased with what is going into the first floor of this. I think Benson Brewery has been mentioned as a tenant of the 10th Street Market and not this project - for what that's worth. Anyway, pumped as ever about little Italy and the rail and commerce district. Thought I'd share now that I've actually joined the forum.

Look how clean that brick is now. They have it all cleaned on this north side except the far right/west section.

Re: Burlington Postal Annex (across from station)
Reminds me of how the Barker Building looked after they power washed it. Looks like things are moving along nicely with the Burlington annex.

They've been power washing the MoO building too and the part they've done looks a lot better now.skinzfan23 wrote:Reminds me of how the Barker Building looked after they power washed it. Looks like things are moving along nicely with the Burlington annex.
Re: Burlington Postal Annex (across from station)
Boyd told the World Herald that 30,000 square feet of space has been leased in this building. They would not say who, as the tenant wants to make their own announcement. Good news!
Always a business-oriented city hungry for growth and focused on development with laser intensity, Omaha aimed high, reached for momentum and found critical mass.

Heard that Warren Distribution (currently at 13th and Leavenworth) is going to lease a large amount of space in this building. Supposedly some museum/art gallery will backfill their current facility.

Re: Burlington Postal Annex (across from station)
A place that 'just fit': Warren Distribution brings its own long history to historic Omaha facility under renovation
Options for Warren’s new corporate headquarters had included the Bluffs’ old Playland Park, where a new business and residential park is being created. Council Bluffs is home also to a 255,000-square-foot Warren manufacturing and packaging plant and 165,000-square-foot distribution center.
Redeveloping its existing downtown Omaha site was weighed as well, but that effort threatened to be too disruptive to business.
Company leaders already were familiar with the 10th Street corridor, having purchased the Burlington Station across from the Rail and Commerce site in 1989. Plans to make a headquarters out of the depot changed with cost projections, Douglas said, and in 1993 Warren put the property back on the market, selling it in 2004.
The 13th Street site, although dated, remains valuable real estate. The Morgan company is marketing the site for office space rental. Douglas said Warren officials believe there might be a better long-term use.
He said the company might redevelop the site, but any decision on that would come later, after the company is settled in its new headquarters.

Nice! Their current home is a prime location for redevelopment.

There is a ribbon cutting for the Rail & Commerce Building tomorrow starting at 10:30am. After a few words, the building will be open to tour for a couple hours. Anyone is welcome. More information here: https://www.boydjonescelebration.com/

I like it a lot. They kept the simplistic design and made it work for them.
Re: Burlington Postal Annex (across from station)

Re: Burlington Postal Annex (across from station)
So glad to hear the continued success here. I always thought this building looked like an eyesore when driving south on 10th St.

Cafe Postale opens in historic former Burlington mail terminal
Cafe Postale now is open in the former Burlington mail terminal south of the Old Market.
The street-level restaurant is a partnership between chef Nathan Newhouse and the Commerce Village co-working space in the century-old Rail & Commerce Building at 950 S. 10th St. It was set to open as Cafe Postino in late February 2020 with different chefs, but the coronavirus pandemic altered that plan
