Big day today. The deal is final and information can be released about this project. The salvage operation is in Omaha, NE at an OPPD building called the James St. Power Plant. The company that is taking on the project is Nustyle Inc. a developer that focuses on historical buidlings and their renovation. Many of their projects are part of the National Registrar of Historical Buildings. They plan to create apartments in the facility. A full story will be in the Omaha World Herald tomorrow, so you are ahead of the media on this one. It pays to have an inside informant.
The owner of the company is Todd Heistand. His web site is posted at the end of this post. Please take a look. He has some remarkable finished projects. Todd introduced himself on the forum as an individual that had two bulk tanks he had to remove for a remodel. We visited about the two tanks which ended up weighing 50 tons each. I envied his challenge and after a tour of the plant accepted a consulting position. I was given a tour of several other buildings including one where they were installing an indoor pool on the 9th or 10th floor. During the short visit we had, he introduced me to the key players in his company and his family. We shared the same values and so far it seems to be a Scrappers Dream.
The strategy was to approach the project as if it was my company that was tackling the challenge. Therefore research was gathered, experts contacted, and a network created. This includes the network on SMF. The information gathered from the forum and other research will be presented to Todd in the near future.
Thank you for your help.
