Bye-Bye No Frills if this happens. I just heard yesterday that things are already not looking good for them. As for Wal-Mart moving to the location of the old Target building - it's about time someone came in and filled that vacant space! I also heard yesterday that they were planning on something ...

Is it a local edition every week or would it be the same stories as other cities?  I just don't know much about The Onion's print side of things.

Total victory for the neighborhood, albeit far from the announcement of a 4-6 story mixed-use development. Sometime soon, I hope!

How about a couple of attractive pedestrian bridges across 13th street from the OM? That would allow foot traffic to flow without having to alter traffic along 13th.

I believe as of April 2, or somewhere thereabouts, the City Weekly newspaper was sold to a new upstart, Omaha-based corporation named the City Media Group (CMG). The new corporation hopes to use the current Omaha weekly newspaper as a model and expand to other similar sized markets, either buying ex...

I heard it's a done deal; it just needs to be officially announced. Another great snap for the Qwest!

advocate or not, icejammer is on to something. it was those folks down at arbor lodge back in the day that couldn't stand the sight of a seemingly 'barren' landscape, even though eastern nebraska had been like that for thousands of years (minus fontenelle forest). all they wanted to do is recreate t...
