Blackstone Knoll (3902 Harney)
TIF request for "The Blackstone Knoll" at 3902 Harney. The property goes all the way to Farnam so its a good size. I am guessing this current building on the site gets demoed for a larger project.

TIF Request for Blackstone Knoll. They will actually keep the older building in back and build a two story structure along Farnam. 3 apartment units above retail. Looks like a cool little project.Coyote wrote:A Site Plan was just submitted for 3902 Harney LLC:iamjacobm wrote:TIF request for "The Blackstone Knoll" at 3902 Harney.

Needs some cornice/entablature. What's with all these flat brick walls? (I know, I know, it's for cost)

Re: Blackstone Knoll (3902 Harney)
Another nice addition.
Re: Blackstone Knoll (3902 Harney)
I think if you look closely the brick is slightly stepped down on the top. Tough to tell for sure though.Omaha_corn_burner wrote:Needs some cornice/entablature. What's with all these flat brick walls? (I know, I know, it's for cost)

I know it's just a rendering, but it looks like that steel (aluminum?) cap they put on the top, for weather protection. I look at this very thing at least 5 times a day.iamjacobm wrote:I think if you look closely the brick is slightly stepped down on the top.

My guess:
My wish:
Re: Blackstone Knoll (3902 Harney)
Ahh your saying the very top. I mean maybe halfway between the windows and the roof it looks like the brick will have some variation.
I think any attempt at those cornices today would come off looking really cheap TBH. There just isn't a modern replacement for the materials that they used to build with.
I would guess it ends up really close to the Dundee building.

Re: Blackstone Knoll (3902 Harney)
I think I liked the color of brick better in the earlier rendering, but I also noticed that there are now 3 balconies instead of 2.

Re: Blackstone Knoll (3902 Harney)
I love it. This project fits in so well with the character of the surrounding neighborhood. GreenSlate does things really well. But, for the sake of greater density, just one or two more floors of apartment units. That would be grand!GSD BSD wrote:Here is an updated rendering for the new building on 39th and Farnam.

Re: Blackstone Knoll (3902 Harney)
Better than that is to make a parking deck on the back half of the 2nd floor (only need 3 spots), and make the apartments into 3 townhouses on the 2nd/3rd floor with roof top patios.skinzfan23 wrote:I think I liked the color of brick better in the earlier rendering, but I also noticed that there are now 3 balconies instead of 2.

On the Farnam side will be a restaurant called Celebrates, still looking for more details.

The initial post I saw mentioned nothing about ever reopening:BensonBunnyBoy wrote: ↑Mon Jul 11, 2022 8:13 am They posted "We are sad to announce July 10th, Butterfish will be closing doors for an indefinite amount of time, due to labor shortage.

The old butterfish spot is going to become a 90s themed sports bar called “First Round”

Yeah, that certainly doesn't make me feel much better. I mean, luckily I wasn't an adult then. But old enough to have clear memories of the daily struggles of school lolTitosBuritoBarn wrote: ↑Fri Jun 02, 2023 7:00 amIf the movie Back to the Future we’re made today they would have traveled back to the year 1993.Athomsfere wrote: ↑Thu Jun 01, 2023 9:15 pm90s themed!?BIGO88 wrote: ↑Thu Jun 01, 2023 8:29 pm The old butterfish spot is going to become a 90s themed sports bar called “First Round”
