SUMMARY:First Look Village Flats
DESCRIPTION:Public invited to see UNK's Village Flats at Oct. 18 first look event\n\n \n\nKEARNEY   With the roof soon to be placed on the new Village Flats at University of Nebraska at Kearney's University Village\, it's a bit too late for a groundbreaking. But students\, City of Kearney\, Residence Life and others plan to celebrate the project at a public "First Look" event at 3 p.m. Wednesday (Oct. 18).\n\nThe brief event signals the progress underway at University Village   and launches the beginning effort to sign up lessees for the apartments for summer 2018 occupancy.\n\nConstruction for the 130-bed apartment-style residence hall began in April\, with completion next summer. The residence hall is the first "rooftop" on the 104-acre mixed-use\, public/private University Village.\n\nThe apartments are one-bedroom (450 square feet) or two-bedroom (700 square feet) units and will rent for $650 or $800 per month\, respectively. Upperclass UNK students and graduate students have priority placement in the residences\, along with University of Nebraska Medical Center students\, visiting and new faculty. \n\nInformation about leasing the apartments will be at unk.edu/housing. Signups will begin via campus student portal MyBLUE on Nov. 15.\n\nAt the event on Oct. 18\, expect a brief presentation and introductions by UNK Chancellor Doug Kristensen\, student Regent Austin Partridge\, and a photo opportunity with the city\, construction company and developer representatives. Large-scale renderings of the interior and exterior of the building will be on site.\n\nIn case of rain\, the event will be canceled. The address for Village Flats is 2201 University Drive.
