Planning Board approves rezoning in Loveland
34-unit apartment complex planned near 78th and Pacific
BROADCAST TRANSCRIPT:
OMAHA, Neb. (KMTV) – A home near 78th and Pacific in Loveland may soon be torn down to make way for a 34-unit apartment complex.
The Planning Board approved a zoning change, allowing the apartment project to move forward.
The Parkway Development Company plans to build a four-story apartment complex with 34 units and dozens of parking spaces.
At present, five students from UNO live in the house, but they plan to move out by the end of May 2026. One of them is senior Jacob Dougherty.
“It was pretty cheap rent, you know, we’re next, or we’re close to campus and everything. So this was like a perfect place for our final year at school,” Dougherty said.
Devo Smith, who works across the street, expressed frustration over the prospect of more construction.
“It’s hard to go anywhere in Omaha with all the construction that’s going on already. It’s kind of another drop in the bucket, I would say,” Smith said.
Stephen Ward, who works in an office building next to the property, acknowledged the shortage of apartment options in that part of the city.
“We’re talking about adding housing to an area that is absolutely limited,” Ward said.
