According to KETV's story, demo is going to begin in July with completion of the project scheduled for next summer.

Rezoning before the planning board.

Updated look.

Hope this means demo is imminent.

I like that much better.

I look forward to seeing this built but .... I don't know why the street lights are wrong for the area. They should match the Dundee style. The narrow double slotted windows look prison-ish to me, but it might just be the long angle.

I absolutely love it! Look at how the 'E' turns into the 'F' on the corner there. That is cool. What a neat, sharp-looking residential project. Great mix of materials & facades. I really like that wood strip look that is very popular right now.

That looks better, though I still think they could throw in some more retail.

Weren't a fan of the neon green? /s

Nope, not with the gray.

I really like that look a lot better than the previous rendering.

MTO · Post by **MTO** » Mon Apr 18, 2016 10:24 am

I'm not as superficial as you style critics but yeah I agree it looks more apropos for Dundee too.

After buying up more property along Dodge Street, developers are thinking big for Dundee Flats

recent acquisition of two more properties already has expanded the earlier site plan to nearly an acre on the south side of Dodge, east of 49th Street. Before, Sage had secured only the corner transmission shop and its neighbor to the east. The purchase of the converted house and its neighbor have raised what before was at least an $8 million project to a nearly $11 million, four-story project.

One neighbor, for instance, wanted to know why an earlier rendering did not include Dundee-style light posts. Moser commented that it was a good catch and would be handled.

If all goes as planned for Dundee Flats, demolition could begin next month

TIF before planning board.

I ran into one of the managers for this project today and invited her to join the conversation, seems like they really want input about this project!

Its great to see all the support the community is giving the developers of this project. I know they would appreciate any and all input from members of the community

Make it taller

$1.8 million in TIF.

I love this project. We saw another infill project like this during the Omaha condo boom in the mid 2000s, and I think the future will bring more medium density projects.

Build it!
Rendering is missing the large stop light on the corner and the fire plug where the people are standing. Hopefully they can take out the ugly "war of the worlds" street lamp as well and actually put in the style now shown in the rendering. Any of the former renderings would be nice but this one looks great.

Fence is up, so I would think demo is getting close.

Demo is rumored to start in 1-2weeks

I'm actually happy they changed the sign. I thought the E-to-F thing was... a stretch!

Anyway, this building is looking fantastic all around.

nebraska · Post by **nebraska** » Sat Aug 13, 2016 2:16 pm

Well, it's 1-2 weeks and still no demo...

Should see action Monday.

MTO · Post by **MTO** » Wed Aug 24, 2016 8:23 am

Well something happened here the storms knocked the fence over.

MTO · Post by **MTO** » Fri Sep 02, 2016 3:26 pm

It's going down now.

nativeomahan · Post by **nativeomahan** » Fri Sep 02, 2016 9:05 pm

As of Sept. 1 I saw no progress.

MTO · Post by **MTO** » Fri Sep 02, 2016 9:17 pm

They pulled that tractor in and never used it, sorry I just assumed something was getting started.

I was going to say that I drove by around 2:30 this afternoon and didn't see any demo activity going on.

nativeomahan · Post by **nativeomahan** » Sat Sep 03, 2016 7:43 pm

Nothing as of September 3rd.

MTO · Post by **MTO** » Sun Sep 04, 2016 3:20 pm

Well it sure looks like they're all set with the fences the dumpster and other hardware on site. It'll be interesting to see which dirt lot along east Dodge actual gets started first.

asherballa · Post by **asherballa** » Wed Sep 07, 2016 8:26 am

Demo started (finally).

Jack Ford · Post by **Jack Ford** » Wed Sep 07, 2016 9:19 am

Looks like they are starting with mitigating the floor hoists pits. Many decades of motor oil and tranny fluid in that soil.

MTO · Post by **MTO** » Tue Sep 20, 2016 11:02 am

Ok they've started demo and I'm for realzies this time.

skinzfan23 · Post by **skinzfan23** » Mon Sep 26, 2016 2:41 pm

Quick update...only the building to the east remains:
