A beauty and health business called Lune Omaha is pushing forward on its long-awaited home in Little Bohemia, with a building permit now filed to remodel a historic structure on South 13th Street. The project promises seven private studios for beauty professionals, a flexible-use space, and a shared lounge where tenants and clients can unwind together.
According to Grow Omaha, the permit was filed the week before publication to remodel the historic building at 1264 South 13th Street. That address differs from an earlier Grow Omaha report, which had placed the business at 1262 South 13th Street and described it as set to open in late fall. The discrepancy between the two addresses has not been resolved, and neither report confirms a firm opening date or the current status of the remodeling work.
Despite the address mismatch, the broader vision for Lune Omaha has remained consistent across both reports. The space is designed for independent beauty, wellness and creative professionals, with seven private studios available for weekly rent. A flexible area will be open for as-needed use, giving the business room to adapt as tenants' needs change.
Shared Amenities Anchor the Concept
Beyond the private studios, Lune Omaha tenants and their clients will share a lounge area, a tea bar and a back patio space, the same Grow Omaha report notes. Those communal touches echo the shared-space model the business has been building toward, offering a social hub alongside individual treatment rooms.
An earlier account from Grow Omaha also described a lower-level space called the Hallow, intended for movement classes, workshops and community programming, with an expected winter opening. That earlier report framed the overall project as a shared space for independent artists and practitioners rather than a single storefront business.
Part of a Broader Little Bohemia Revival
Lune Omaha's progress fits into a wider pattern of reinvestment along South 13th Street, where the first new shops opened in restored spaces after months of redevelopment work, according to KETV. Kelsey Knauss and Noelle Bush opened a salon along the same corridor, drawn by a sense that they were part of something special in the neighborhood's comeback. Vincent Outfitting Co. owner Jesse Harding chose Little Bohemia for his high-end menswear shop after weighing locations in Benson and Blackstone, ultimately deciding the momentum building in Little Bohemia made it the right fit.
That momentum has drawn attention beyond individual storefronts. A developer's multipart plan to revamp the historic Little Bohemia area near 14th and William Streets cleared an important hurdle, according to a post from X user @OWHnews
, signaling continued interest in reshaping the district south of downtown Omaha.
For now, Lune Omaha's exact timeline remains unclear, and the conflicting addresses leave one open question about precisely where shoppers should look for the finished studios. What is confirmed is that the permit has been filed and the historic building is slated for a remodel that will bring private studios, a tea bar and shared gathering space to the neighborhood's growing lineup of independent businesses.
