Several of the board members were invited to a “hard hat tour” of the progress at the Elex in early March, 2025. Elex is the apartment and mixed use building currently under construction just north of Electric Works. In the picture below, we’re standing in the living room of a future apartment in the 55-and-older building which runs along Broadway.
Kevan Biggs from the development team was on hand at our March 2025 association meeting to provide details, along with Chris Faurote of Weigand Construction. The first units (55+) should be available for rent starting this fall, with the other two buildings (market-rate) coming online early in 2026. Unlike the building along Broadway, the market-rate buildings are available to renters of any age. Specific details on these market rents won’t be available until closer to the completion date. Check the Elex website for updated information.
Chris informed the group that the huge crane that has been up and running since the project started will come down around Memorial Day 2025. Because it’s so large, it takes more than a dozen semi trucks to haul it away, which means they’ll need to shut down parts of Van Buren and Lavina to allow safe ingress and egress. More details will follow on that so keep an eye on our Facebook page.
