Ford Lofts (10th and Dodge)
I noticed today that they are installing balconies on the north side of this building. Â I think they really add to the look and should really help with the sell of these condo's. Â Though they do not yet have patio doors to the decks. Â They are installed aroud the currentenly installed windows
All these pictures make me miss Omaha. Oh well, I'm getting my own place on May 12th in Omaha so it's all good.
On an unrelated note, I didn't know apartments could age discriminate. The first thing she asked us was if we were 20 years old. When we were filling out the paperwork they had the policy plaqued and standing erect on the table. It was odd that they made it so blantant, but I could see how that is attractive to some renters.

That was what I thought was funny... I just ASSUMED an 18 to 20 year old couldn't sign a lease without a co-signer or something (don't you have to be like 25 to rent a car? My 18 year old daughter couldn't even get her own car loan... that's probably going to come back to bite me)... and here these guys are crying out age discrimination!

My hunt for for living downtown has finally ended.
After years of listening to everyone on here I finally started looking at moving to the Old Market about 2 years ago. I determined that for the price and location that the Ford Lofts were my choice and in particular 1 of 12 units. After missing out on a unit last year, two became open last week. Perfect, I am ready to make a full price cash offer but needed to confirm the parking spot. The parking is underground and an end spot, double bonus worth an extra $10k for me. Now as long as the board allows me to pay for an electric car charging hookup I am ready to move in. I am expecting this could cost me up to $20k but I would still be under budget for what I wanted. Either way it would not cost the board anything, is small enough that no one would notice it, and in the future anyone could tie into the line at a fraction of the cost.
The board decides that they are not interested and I would not be allowed to have a charger installed. Well that ended my search for a place downtown. I'm not sure why they wouldn't approve it but makes me glad I don't live there.

Who was paying for the electricity that this service would be tied into?Trips wrote:My hunt for for living downtown has finally ended.
