Are you referring to Armstrong Renaissance? I personally haven't stepped foot in those houses/apartments. I have to imagine it's certainly better to have a new construction house than a 80-100 year old home that's been neglected, but don't have the expectation that because a home is brand new doesn't mean you won't have repairs after the builder's warranty runs out (usually a year), so budget accordingly.

I worked on the Armstrong project over the course of two years. Not great build quality in general (but what is these days) and the general neighborhood is about as nice as one might expect from the proximity to Creighton. $1800/month townhomes across the street from an empty lot where homebums have garbage fires.
