A new housing subdivision that one official described as “very big” and “significant” is proposed for the eastern part of Council Bluffs. The Daily NonPareil says Greenview Estates, a 409-lot subdivision, will be built north of Greenview Road and west of Franklin Avenue. The single-family homes project, proposed by Omaha development firm BHI, is scheduled for a vote of approval or disapproval by the Council Bluffs Planning Commission next Tuesday.

It’s believed to be the first completely new subdivision in several years in the area, as opposed to recent additions to existing subdivisions. The last major subdivisions of a similar size to be built in Council Bluffs have been the Hills of Cedar Creek in the eastern portion of the city and the Sevens at Fox Run along Veterans Memorial Highway.
