Re: CHI Health Center (Century Link Center) Omaha Remodel
Thought: Omaha was scheduled to host the MLB draft when it was cancelled in 2020. I have often wondered when/ if they would go after that event again? I think at the time it was scheduled for the Holland but it would not surprise me to learn that hosting the draft might require a war room/ meeting s...

Re: Downtown Soccer Stadium
They are making the announcement at Omaha City Hall, with the mayor, I doubt that they are doing that only to announce a Gretna development location.

Re: Mutual of Omaha Plans for the Future?
I posted earlier that I heard they planned to demo both towers, I meant the HQ building on the North side of Farnum. It has always looked like 2 buildings to me. Supposedly the buildings on the South side of Farnum will stay. They are opting for a series of 6 story buildings on the footprint where t...

Once again, let's say you only know 100 people in Omaha, think coworkers, former coworkers, wife's coworkers, friends, family, church, kids friends, neighbors, etc,etc, . If you know 6 people that commute between Omaha and Lincoln then only 6% of the people you know commute. Let's say you know 200 p...

I would have to disagree, how many people do you personally know in Omaha, hundreds?, if you have lived here your whole life it may be many more than that. How many people do you know that commute? I know hundreds of Omahans and I only personally know of a couple that commute one way or the other. O...

Re: 1416 Dodge - Lanoha Highrise
There is already a tunnel under the UP building on the north side that stretches from the North side of the building to that parking garage that they use just north of the Hollard Center. I don't think it would take too much to connect a future Lanoha building to the UP building under the street.

Actually I dont think the surface lot is going to be turned into a garage.
