Developer said that the short side that everyone hasn't been a fan of was done that way because of height restrictions.

Height restrictions? What are they protecting? The view of Durham and Burlington?iamjacobm wrote:Developer said that the short side that everyone hasn't been a fan of was done that way because of height restrictions.

Re: Corvina (Butternut Site)
Maybe that is why they burned down the Butternut Building. Retroactive height restriction.

Re: Corvina (Butternut Site)
Thy started leasing units this week. The inside has a bunch of work done already.
Re: Corvina (Butternut Site)
I'm wondering if Shamtock was in charge of the exterior...

Re: Corvina (Butternut Site)
Talked to someone this weekend that said move in day here is August 1st.
Re: Corvina (Butternut Site)
The exterior might be moving slow b/c so far the entire front facade has been either brick or block. The prefab siding like 1501 has only been on the back side so far.
Re: Corvina (Butternut Site)
Pre-leasing seems to be going strong. As of 3 weeks ago there was one studio unit left in the entire building and they just posted that there is only 1 2br unit left for phase one.
Re: Corvina (Butternut Site)
So when does UP relinquish their parking lots?

Re: Corvina (Butternut Site)
I know it sounds kind of crazy, but the shovel ready sites for projects this scale seem to be getting slim near OM. The lots around 11th and Harney, 11th and Jackson, 15th and Harney and 15th and Jones are the ones that jump out to me. Yes that is still some opportunity, but if you are wanting to do a less that $20 million project in prime location you might need to get your hands on land pretty soon. Obviously I could be wrong about this, but lots like OPD, Orpheum, Embassy Suites and UP seem less likely to develop anytime soon.

Re: Corvina (Butternut Site)
That has to be the slowest exterior finish I've ever seen.

Re: Corvina (Butternut Site)
From this view the lowest floor looks like commercial space?? Any idea what might be going in there??
Re: Corvina (Butternut Site)
BVH Architects is moving into that building from 15th & Jones. I assume it would be on the first floor at the northeast corner. Haven't heard of any other commercial, but it looks like it was designed for such.swgiust wrote:From this view the lowest floor looks like commercial space?? Any idea what might be going in there??

Re: Corvina (Butternut Site)
It is BVH and City Ventures, the developer of the project, taking all the commercial space.GetUrban wrote:BVH Architects is moving into that building from 15th & Jones.

Re: Corvina (Butternut Site)
I like how post modern this building is, but I wish Omaha would get out of its 5 floor condo building stage and go higher.

Re: Corvina (Butternut Site)
The 12 story apartment building will help with that. Another commercial to residential conversion would be nice as well.PotatoeEatsFish wrote:I like how post modern this building is, but I wish Omaha would get out of its 5 floor condo building stage and go higher.

Re: Corvina (Butternut Site)
Somebody needs to take the next step and start offering residents 15-20 story residential options. Omaha is so slow to make that leap for some unknown reason. I'm convinced that were a 20 story residential tower, or combo hotel and residential building, be built, people would flock to it for the more urban feel, and the views.
Re: Corvina (Butternut Site)
You don't like the Tyvek exterior?

Re: Corvina (Butternut Site)
Scaffolding is down on the west side portion of the building.
Re: Corvina (Butternut Site)
One from yesterday. I wanted to catch it in the good light but I ran out of time so I got this afternoon shot.

People must really like downtown condos if they're building all these condo buildings.
