I am sorry that I doubted that this was ever going to get off the ground. It is really great that they have done almost no advertising and secured about 25% of the units sold. I can’t wait until they start tearing down the old UP.

There are not a bunch of hotels near the current ball park (that has had the CWS for the last 50+ years) so what would be so special that would make them put 4 hotels there? I dont think it is for a smaller ball park then the one we have now. It must be something eles. :D

OK here it is the 3rd of August, and they have not started to tear down the old UP building. Not even an announcement on the signing of a contract with anyone to tear it down. Should we meet there with sledge hammers and axes to jump start this thing?

When looking for a job, I never considered Lincoln due to the drive and the rising cost of Gas. If I could catch a bus (or hopefuly a train) to and from Lincoln I would deffently expand my search to Lincoln.

2 Billion is a lot of money. If I recall correctly that was about the same amount of money that was spent on the river front area along with FNC, UP and the PAC. That would mean that there were some HUGE projects coming to this area.

The World Herald probably included the downtown and river front in these numbers, even though they said between the Qwest and CU. Just like every one else I wish they would spend 2 Billions dollars is this area, but I just don’t see that happening.
