🔥 Top Scoops in Louisville, KY

APK Development and Construction LLC is renovating the interior of the existing commercial building at 504 S 18th Street to create a restaurant, with a project value estimated at $400,000. OW Broadway Holdings LLC owns the property; work includes new partitions and finishes, accessible restrooms, a full commercial kitchen with rooftop HVAC and kitchen-exhaust systems, plumbing for food-service fixtures, and updated electrical, lighting and emergency signage — all while leaving the exterior shell unchanged and meeting building and ADA codes.

An emergency demolition has been approved at 2343 W Muhammad Ali Blvd — owners Michelle Chivers and John Williams are listed and the one-story, vacant former residence (built 1900, about 3,020 sq ft) is slated for work from 02/10/2026 to 03/10/2026. Aesthetic Industrial Contracting, Inc. is the abatement and waste-hauler, with daily disposal to WM Outer Loop Landfill and about 10 cubic yards removed per day; the permit treats the entire structure as presumed RACM. The order allows RACM to remain in place during demolition but requires minimizing disturbance, keeping materials wet, containerizing and promptly disposing of debris, and forbids tracked vehicles on demolition piles.

Architectural Builders is handling a fire-restoration rebuild at 1400 Whisperwood Trace for owners Gary Wayne and Barbara M. Leonhardt, reconstructing the house on the existing foundation and adding a new rear crawl-space foundation per the plans after demolition was completed. The one-story project is about 4,429 sq ft with four bedrooms, keeps existing structural deck members and retaining walls, and is estimated at $821,000.
