Lincoln—October 15, 2020—New Generation Construction, NGC, the general contracting firm constructing Chateau Development’s new multi-family project, broke ground for phase I. The site is located at Yankee Hill Road just east of S. 40th Street. Phase I consists of a 166-key multi-family building with parking garage and a state-of-the art fitness center, club house and leasing office. Phase I is scheduled to be completed in approximately two years, then construction of phase II will begin. Once fully completed, this 866-key 18-building multi-family complex will have four-story apartment buildings with underground parking and two-story garden-style townhomes.
