Re: Old Union Pacific Headquarters Lot
Mayor said on Grow Omaha this past Saturday they are holding on to this lot. Short-Term it may be a laydown yard for the Streetcar Construction. Long term they want the "Right Project" with decent height. So far the only interest was from an apartment developer who wanted to build a small...

Re: Nebraska Basketball 2024-2025
Not really the right thread, but is this the first year that both the womens and mens teams from Nebraska and Creighton have made the dance? Not 100% sure, but I have read elsewhere that this is the first time all four teams are in the NCAA tourney at the same time. Keep in mind that with the Huske...

Re: Lot B Development
During a break in the uncut GO, the Mayor mentioned they want to see a full service hotel like Omni. Omni is building in conjunction to convention center business and they build tall; I hope they become the third anchor and build something at least as tall as the Marriott. This is the second time y...

Back to the garages talk. I don't think they will free up any currently available spaces until the development fills up. I know there was an office building planned next to HDR in the space that currently has the sand volleyball courts. Seems like that might have fallen through but I imagine they w...
