signs of life?
While driving across the 10th St bridge yesterday I saw what looked to be a new sign hanging from the remains of the building that said "9ines Lofts - Model Open". Has this sign been there all along and I have just missed it or are the original plans still on and they are actually showing model units to prospective buyers??

I'm extremely glad that the shell hasn't fallen yet. It seems to look ok, but there's more to consider than that. I heard that the high temperatures of the fire may have weekened some of the bricks. They will have to do structural tests before we know anything more, I'm sure.

Would there be any height restrictions put on a future building at that location?StreetsOfOmaha wrote:I don't see why lawsuits having to do with the Butternut Building would be a major hindrance to going forward with a project on the site.
I'm sure Christensen is sitting on the land waiting for the right time to start HIS Wallstreet Tower Omaha.

A 9 story luxury apartment building burns down and no one knows the cause? Any insurance company is not going to pay out without a reason and if they knew who to point the fingers at they still wouldn't pay. This land will be tied up in legal problems for years.StreetsOfOmaha wrote:I don't see why lawsuits having to do with the Butternut Building would be a major hindrance to going forward with a project on the site.

Heh, I just noticed that Google maps still shows the burned out shell of this building, it's kinda trippy seeing down into it without any roof or even the floors.

Life is the sh*t that happens while we wait for moments that never come.
That why google maps is not a good choice. Â Google maps uses 2004 imagery.Bugeater wrote:Heh, I just noticed that Google maps still shows the burned out shell of this building
You should use bing.com which uses 2008 or dogis.org which uses a combination of 2008 downtown and 2007 in west Omaha.

I wish Google Maps/Earth would at least show the image date on their photos. Â Like most satellite image hosts, they buy their images from someone else, and I imagine it's expensive to keep them updated with the latest available images.
Terraserver http://www.terraserver.com/home.asp not only shows the date of their images, but also has a list of available images for over the last 10 years. Â I have found it useful for viewing changes in a site over time (of course, you have to pay for anything more than the small, low-resolution images with watermarks).
