Heartwood Preserve (144th Dodge/Pacific)

Per Grow Omaha, the Marriott Autograph hotel here will be named "The Elowen" which is just about the most Lord of the Rings name for a hotel I've ever heard.

I walked through the area later last night and it looked liked Heartwood Row is fully open now. And with that 147th St is open all the way through and the parking garage is as well, which still had a few cars in it around 10 pm.

The Olsson building looks like it is done now, except the top floor which will likely get built out later.

They posted more about it today: https://growomaha.com/construction-on-t ... -preserve/

This will be a 6 story building just west of Olsson. There is also another 5 story apartment building just across the street to the south. Both are supposed to start construction this fall.

The Elowen will be part of the Marriott Autograph Collection and is slated to open in 2028. The 6-story building will have 160 hotel rooms as well as a ground-floor restaurant and rooftop bar. Lanoha is working with Colorado-based Greenwood Hospitality to design the bar and restaurant. Both spaces are being designed as gathering places for hotel guests and the local community, offering elevated food and beverage experiences in the heart of The Row.

The name “Elowen” was chosen, because it reflects Lanoha’s deep roots in Omaha and the company’s longstanding connection to growth, nature and place.

“The name is inspired by the American Elm, a tree native to Nebraska,” said Jenny Galley, marketing manager at Lanoha. “We were drawn to the name, because it is elegant, memorable and meaningful, a subtle nod to both the natural beauty surrounding the project and our Nebraska heritage.”

The hotel will be constructed immediately west of Olsson’s building. Just to the south of the hotel, construction is slated to begin this fall on a 5-story structure that will have 168 luxury rental apartments. That building is being designed for “successful professionals and discerning downsizers.”

Snapped a few pics from yesterday during a bike ride. I like parts of the development but once it’s all filled in, it will be a bit too much for me.

How are the model rowhouses looking?

How are the model rowhouses looking?

I think they look good but I was thinking the one on the north might need a touchup on some edges.

There's been probably around 6 or 7 more that have been built/are far along and two more that just started foundation work. I noticed probably another 4 or so sold signs on other lots around the area.

For the ones they've built recently, they aren't right next to each other like the models and I expect more to be built between them at some point.

It appears this neighborhood is going to fill in fairly quickly. I actually like the idea of this area and was thinking it could be a good fit in the future. Although it would be nice to have a small yard. Also I don't like how much of an island it is from the other neighborhoods. It's too bad there isn't any connection to Piedmont.

Good to hear that they’re selling, but also crazy that a $1.4 million row house is selling in Millard these days
