\"pictureThere were some pleasant results when UNMC planners worked with the neighborhood association in designing a new 60-unit student apartment complex.<\/p>\n

After consulting with Blackstone Neighborhood Association members, architects came up with a better building design for the units near 38th Avenue and Jones Street and the neighbors are much happier.<\/p>\n

Del Lee, UNMC associate vice chancellor for business and finance, and Ron Tietgen, manager of architectural services, unveiled the final plan in early December at a meeting with six Blackstone association board members. The $4.8 million project will be paid for by revenue bonds.<\/p>\n

What started as a single three-story structure is now two separate buildings with entrances on the east as well as the west. A prairie style of architecture, which blends with rather than stands out against the landscape, will be used, Lee said.<\/p>\n

Exterior finishes will include a band of brick topped by a band of hardyplank, a cement-based material that will look like stucco when it is painted. The roof will be of asphalt shingles. <\/p>\n

Trellises and an interior courtyard will tie the two buildings together, Lee said.<\/p>\n

The board members liked the design and the materials, but not the colors. They suggested brown brick rather than red, and a darker shade for the upper band.<\/p>\n

Lee said the colors aren’t set in stone. These final decisions will be coordinated with the neighborhood association. <\/p>\n

UNMC is on schedule to have at least one of the buildings ready for occupancy this fall.<\/p>\n

The new complex — the first apartment building UNMC has ever built on its campus — will contain 60 rental units, each with high-speed Internet access, a washer\/dryer, dishwasher and other modern amenities, said Keith Swarts of UNMC’s Business & Finance office. A mix of one- and two-bedroom apartments will be available. <\/p>\n

Business and Finance has started a waiting list for students interested in renting a unit in the new building. Contact Esther Collins at 559-5201 if you are interested in adding your name to the waiting list.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
