Does soil testing mean site prep is officially underway?

Is it the crane for the admin building or the parking garage?

Soil sampling means prepping for site prep is underway. IE the med center is spending $50 million to make sure they can actually do this expansion and if for whatever reason it’s a no, there’s still an easy off ramp before spending $1.2 billion.

The tower crane is for the garage. There is a crawler crane setting steel for the admin building.

Buildings along Leavenworth around Barrett's Barleycorn are demolished, leaving big holes in the ground. Is that just for future development?

I just noticed that there were 2 houses on the south side of Leavenworth that have also been demolished. Just looked them up and they were owned by the Univ too. I didn't realize they were buying houses on that side too.

Flyer14 · Post by **Flyer14** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 6:08 pm

They announced earlier this week they will tear down 4 houses on the south side of Leavenworth. In the meantime all the properties they tear down on both sides of Leavenworth are to be landscaped.

Drake Williams was awarded the steel contract for the expansion. I've seen the renderings but not sure if I'm at liberty to share.

Which expansion? Are you talking about Project Health? I thought they were not at that point yet to start contracting for construction.

There are only 2 threads, one for UNMC and one for the Steel Castings Redevelopment/Edge District.

Sorry my comment was slightly tongue in cheek although this project does continue to confuse me with how much stuff is going on.

No problem. The only reason I never merged the two together is the fact its more of a mixed use development being developed by the hospital, rather than actual hospital development.

Things must be progressing in the background for Project NExT; I found an ad on LinkedIn that Kiewit is hiring for a senior scheduler position.

Great shot Brad , you can see the new Hampton Inn on the far left side of the picture. A lot of good density in the Med-Center/Blackstone area. Especially for a metro of our size.

Just for ease of comparison the previously posted rendering from this angle.

It's a bit hard to make out from that distance, but is there a different, smaller building in LTC's place?

2Adam29 · Post by **2Adam29** » Mon Nov 04, 2024 7:28 pm

I see lied tower, it just looks more rectangular in this rendering than it does in reality.
