Early-stage construction has started on the southwest corner of 72nd & Farnam Street, a block south of Omaha’s future flagship library. That’s where a $44 million, 5-story, mixed-use building will soon rise. Developed by Chip James of Lockwood Development, the building will have 176 apartment units plus ground-level retail space that will host a Williamsburg Pizza restaurant and a Jimmy John’s sub-sandwich shop. Once Jimmy John’s opens in the new building, the existing, free-standing Jimmy John’s building will be demolished.
