PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Located in downtown Omaha, CO2 on Tenth Street is a model for natural, urban living. Alvine Engineering provided mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and fire protection engineering systems design for this development in the heart of an established urban neighborhood. All of CO2’s living spaces feature modern, upscale design elements. Offering one- and two-bedroom apartments and a fantastic penthouse, the CO2 on Tenth Street spaces also include fireplaces, private balconies, and two bathrooms in each unit.

The first floor of the building houses the Echo Coffee Shop, which is open to the public. Community spaces include a gathering space, an outdoor fire pit, an herb and plant garden, and a dog run.
