Omaha Forums

I don't believe this is the dumbest thing I've ever read. In fact, I think it's a very solid argument and it does have logic to it. I'm from Lincoln, and I really enjoy the growth and momentum the city is experiencing right now. I also love Omaha just the same (probably one of the few Lincolnites to...

This is just the first phase of the West Haymarket Redevelopment. They are already doing environmental clean up work on old industrial sites south of the Overpass to be ready for the next phase of development. These next 5-10 years could be pretty exciting.

Check out this article and it'll better expl...

Sadly, they have yet to announce the groundbreaking of the Breslow Ice Center. The grading you saw was simply for the pedestrian bridge and future parking lots. However, The entire project has been financed. I think they are still deciding on the final location of the center, even though officials h...
