I love repurposed old warehouses, so I was excited to check out Dizzy Mule during Open Omaha last Saturday. Built in 1886, it was home to M.A. Disbrow and Company, a millwork operation that ceased operations in 1982.

Located in Millwork Commons at 1218 Izard Street in North Downtown, two new buildings were built and attached on both sides of the original Radford Building. Combined, they include 172 units ranging from a studio to three bedrooms, in addition to retail, restaurant, and commercial space. Amenities include a lounge, courtyard, and fitness center. One of its key features will be an alleyway that will provide space to dine and socialize, similar to Inner Rail Food Hall at Aksarben Village.

If you’re not familiar with Open Omaha, it is Omaha by Design’s annual open house featuring local businesses, landmarks, creative spaces, and hidden gems. It is free and open to the community.
