Project Details

The Lincoln Housing Authority is planning a new development of affordable housing located at S. Folsom Street and W. Old Cheney Road. The 13.62-acre development will consist of 4-plex townhomes. Eight-plex apartment buildings, a clubhouse, maintenance building, playgrounds, community garden, several detached garage buildings and other site amenities. 128 units are planned, 75 percent of which will be income-restricted or affordable. Schemmer provided preliminary design services to enable LHA to apply for Low Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC) and assisted with the site rezoning and annexation and Community Unit Plan for the development.
Upon award of tax credits, Schemmer was contracted to assist with full design and CA services. The development is planned to be constructed in two phases with Phase One currently under construction.
