About West Farnam Apartments

The historic West Farnam boutique apartments are a recently renovated 9-unit apartment building. There are eight 1,800 square foot two-bedroom units and one 850 square foot one-bedroom unit. This building was built in 1914 and was the first residential building in Omaha to have an elevator. West Farnam has been home to Omaha’s elite over many decades with rumored almost soap opera like past. A famous Omaha director called this building home as recently as the 1990’s. Now renovated these upscale apartments boast large open floor plans with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a sunroom, and a bonus office/den off the kitchen. High-end finishes like quartz counter tops, wood-trim detailing, stainless steel appliances, crown molding, and upscale tile mix the building’s history with trendy design. Each apartment lease comes with a private garage stall in the detached 11-car garages. This is a great building for a maintenance-free life style just a block away from the Blackstone District.

West Farnam Apartments is an apartment community located in Douglas County and the 68105 ZIP Code. This area is served by the Omaha Public Schools attendance zone.

Neighborhood

If your idea of a great lunch is a Rueben sandwich and a beer, you'll love Omaha's Blackstone District. This is where the classic sandwich was first created, back in the 1920s, and where you can still sample the original at Crescent Moon (which also happens to be one of America's Top 100 Beer Bars four years running). Speaking of Beer, the Blackstone District is home to several famous breweries, including Farnam House Brewing and beer halls like Huber Haus.

Aside from the Blackstone District's great food and beer, this neighborhood is highly walkable and filled with historic and trendy warehouses converted into lofts. Dating back to around 1880, the Blackstone District has always been an Omaha favorite, even earning the nickname "Gold coast" in the 1920s. Your Blackstone apartment will place you on the east side of downtown, directly south of Midtown.
