Message from the President

The board would like to hear from you to know what you would like the neighborhood association work on for you.  You can send an email or stop by and talk to any of the officers.

 

P & Q Street Construction

Construction of the bridges have started on P and Q streets.  The ‘shoefly’ is in place on both streets so we drive around the construction area. The bridges are being built in the path of the street.  When all bridges are built, then the Antelope Creek will be dug out and opened under the bridges. The O street bridge should be started next year.

 

Big T has another leg open

Another leg of the big T has opened over the railroad tracks at 17th Street.  We are seeing many construction projects relating to Antelope Valley Project happening in our neighborhood.

 

Whittier School

UNL has made plans for Whittier School but at this time it hasn’t been made public.

 

Heartland Optical Inc. has opened in their new building at 27th and Apple.  They will continue their wholesale business and have added retail sales.

 

Vine Street construction is now completed. Plantings have been completed. It will be interesting to see the plants as they mature.

 

Liberty Village is the first project for redevelopment in our area for the Antelope Valley Project.  Brighton Construction is working with the city Urban Develop Department and Neighborhoods Inc. to build 16 single family homes and 2 duplex units located between U and Vine, 23rd to 24th Streets. The 16 homes are now built and sold.  They are in the process of building the 2 duplex units.
