Looks like they are working on the parking garage between 18th and 17th right now. Getting a nice hotel and that many apts along with all the Millwork development will really help the daily activity in North Downtown.
Do you mean 15th and 16th? Nice to see some retail being included.

Approximately 2,728 square feet of retail space will be located at street level, enhancing pedestrian activity and neighborhood engagement. The structure will feature modern mechanical, electrical, and fire protection systems, as well as accessible design elements throughout.
According to Trenton on Grow Omaha, Noddle will be announcing some things for the Builders District in the next couple of weeks. Nothing really beyond that.
Two New Building Permits dated today for the Builders District:
Sonny's Builders District - 360 SF - Original Description: Building out of a Commissary within a large metal shipping container.
Sonny's Builders District - 176 SF - Original Description: This is small building constructed from a shipping container that will provide ADA restrooms for an outdoor bar and restaurant.
Sonny's in Aksarben is great, hopefully it translates DT as well. During the summer it is a magnet for people, so this could definitely be the type of thing to get more evening activity north of the interstate.

Sam Noddle announced on Grow Omaha this morning that Noddle Companies is leaving Aksarben and going to the Mass Timber building at 1501 Mike Fahey.
I think they got a lease signed for the whole 4th floor. I haven't figured out the tenant yet.
Law firm Fraser Stryker is taking ~38k SF here. They are moving from Energy Plaza. Nice to see additional daytime population in North Downtown.

A new Goodlife Sports Bar and Grill will be opening up a location here.
Weird, I thought someone already posted that. They talked about it when Noddle was on Grow Omaha a few weeks ago. Its going in the Mass Timber building that Noddle built.

Saw this 1955 Spartan Royal Mansion vintage travel trailer in offstreet parking in Aksarben Village today in the Innet Rail loading dock area. Assume this will be the large metal shipping container. The inside has been gutted with probably new wiring, etc.

Jeff on Grow Omaha mentioned in an uncut segment that a hotel (presumably the 12 story one?) will be breaking ground this fall
Someone else suggested it and they generally are located by larger state schools but a Graduate brand hotel would be cool there.
Marriott Hotel with 170 rooms and 12 luxury condos on the parking lot on the south side of Mike Fahey St between 16th and 17th (right to the east of Morrison)
