Is this right off I-80? There a couple big barn situations full of cars like this along it.

Louie

I don’t see a difference between the two pictures. Did I miss something?

That is a much less visible location and also not nearly the eyesore. And Dollar Tree serves a better purpose as a general store.

Danny’s was a nice spot.

MegaSaver across from the library. Brilliant.

Pitch was the 2 seed in Region Two, Pizza King was the 3 seed in Region 3.

I have never shopped nor gotten gas at a MegaSaver, does anyone else here frequent these gas stations?

An update from Monday afternoon on the catwalk. https://i.postimg.cc/p94HRXXr/IMG-8687.avif Did you take that? Thanks for the update! This seems a bit ahead of schedule. Maybe they will start installing the glass by the summer. Wife did, she has to fly almost every week. But I'll see it in person l...

Could be utility prep work for it that they've been doing here and there. Where is this?

They are getting after on this project. Exciting to see.

Good to hear someone is taking another go at the property.

Louie

Pretty good chance we will get up into the mid-80s this weekend. I'd be surprised if we have to worry about any hard freezes again until next fall. :) So you are suggesting I can put my snow blower away? Lol, I put mine away like 6 weeks ago. Thats about when I added stabilizer to the fuel in mine ...

OMG

"Tesla Robotaxi unveil on 8/8" - Elon Musk This should put production in early 2026. I would expect to see wide release by 2028, just in time to get a ride to the streetcar. Nebraska already has laws on the books and the current technology does 99.7% of the driving. * 8 is a Chinese numbe...

I guess I'm not sure why he has to pay any signficant pennance, other than for sucking horribly at his job... What did he really do that was worse than, say, a Steve Sarkisian or a Frank Solich? I'm not even aware of any of the salacious rumors - and ultimately, that's all they are - that could be ...

He crushed it last night.

I do think SF will coach again; he just did not set out to be a Head Coach at a major program. He can be successful as a position or assistant coach. I think his best option will be in the NFL. Today on 1620, they said he might need to start off at a fairly low end job and work his way back up agai...

I don't always have time, are you having another bad day again like last time? Loosen up its a beautiful day!

Thank you for your psychological evaluations, please run the scan through again as the diagnosis errored out.

Louie

Sarcasm it is then.

O'Leaver's is a sand volleyball institution in the summer.

This is a real win for overall safety standards. Glad to hear this was adopted.

I see. Male strippers and other “wholesome type(s) of entertainment.” Maybe a bar like that belongs up on Abbot Drive in Carter Lake more than in the Old Market. Yeah, given the place’s prior problems…..stating one thing and then doing something else isn’t going to end well. Unfortunate, because I’...

That would be a fantastic episode of Grow Omaha. A development debate. I'd rather see more of a forum than a debate. Allow candidates to present their ideas to the public and be asked direct questions without needing to take shots at each other as a central component haha. Hey, could we do this for...

Louie

Solid repurposing if true. Didn't realize it was that empty currently, but going from that to a few hundred permanent residents would be great.

Saw in the news Governer Pillen is trying to pass a bill to make Nebraska a winner take all state for voting. Trying to take away the power of our 1 electoral vote from Douglas County. you mean like 48 other states? It's worked perfectly fine for the state until now. And it's been a consolation pri...

Of course he is. Anything to remove autonomy from the cities.

I mean, this is nothing new. Vegas has been demolishing and replacing casinos for decades. It's just part of that very particular industry that the city has curated.

Louie

After reading the article, I came away with the following opinion. This is an attempt to pull funding (paid for by all Nebraskans) from public schools to private schools in an effort that will no doubt improve the private school experience and worsen the public school experience. Which in turn will ...

nativeomahan wrote: ↑Mon Apr 01, 2024 11:47 am Isn’t this just a replacement restaurant inside the Hilton Omaha? If so the story needed to state that.

The address certainly seems to just be the Hilton.

If that were true, the City of Omaha would not be an aggressive annexing entity. I think that's an entirely different thing. If Omaha Doesn't annex what it can, it could lose the option to do so later. Probably the absolute best example is St Louis. Where St Louis City is like 250,000 people, is th...

Lol, what exactly about the cloisters tells you he ‘cares’ about the land?

Hmm, I wasn't expecting single story ranch style connected housing here.

Yes, they've done a great job keeping the menu and food quality the same while making investments in the building as well.

Stothert mentioned permanent two way bike lane on north side of harney today at YP Summit. So it's going to be switched from the south side of the street to the north? Is there a reason behind that? The streetcar goes along the south side on Harney. Ope, that was an oversight on my part.
