Drove by this week-still doing duct work inside, pretty rough for an opening in a month or less.

My take on the closing of the home delivery distribution centers is that the novelty has worn off and not as many people are using home delivery. I do not see nearly the number of HyVee delivery vehicles in our area that I did at first. HyVee also stated that not everything was stocked in the deliv...

Just heard today that Barnes & Noble has been told to be out by June.

That's my 7 year old grandson Leo playing with the Lego pieces in the KETV video. I took him down to see the Sean Kenney display, loves Legos!

Those cars have been parked there since Subaru moved West.

The hotel was a dump, the land is awkwardly situated, and the bar developed a crappy reputation so no one was going to try a renovation project. The sooner it gets taken down and replaced with something useful,the better. That place was here in 1975 when I moved here, so no telling how old it is. I...

Tried this a couple weeks ago-the meats we tried (brisket & ribs) were good but the sides were pretty bad, bad enough to not go back.

The Homestyle Cafe has been in the same location, same strip mall just off Maple since the 1970's, at least. I used to go there as a kid, it was great then but haven't been back since. Might need to try the new space.

Maybe it’s the pessimistic in me, but I sense the same old stereotypes will be presented (yawn)- corn, cows, pigs, farms, backwards hickishness etc.. Nebraska could not, possibly, be urban- at ALL right?.. if this ends up being the case, it’ll be a hard pass for me..And I hope it ends up being a fl...

Wednesday morning I was told they had temporary sewer issues.

We dated there in the 70'S, was way smaller then, perhaps an enclosed trailer? Sad to see it go, stopped there often, even though the service was horrible.

Great location for a Ross

Where is there a Taco Bell on Maple at 171st?

Any ideas why Google would contract a small Omaha company for a large order of red and white handmade items?? I have a client that was contacted by Google to make these said items and I do contract sewing for her. I don't know any of the details yet but apparently the deal is so large, she is puttin...

That's too bad. I have always enjoyed McAlister's when traveling, thought the food was great. Unfortunately, both Omaha locations seemed to be lacking in that great food-they were just OK and not very busy.

Thanks for the info

On Grow Omaha this morning Jim Sadler said they had a deal in place for maggiano's italian to take Joe’s spot. He said the new CEO of maggiano's italian has put all new leases on hold u til he reviews all the deals. Still hopeful they take the spot, but there is other interest too. That would be gr...

Jim Sadler, general manager of Westroads Mall was guest host with Trenton Magid on the Grow Omaha radio show this morning on KFAB.. They had an interesting discussion about retail in the Omaha area.. For the “Dillard’s to Westroads” crowd, Sadler intimated it’s unlikely to happen as Dillard’s actua...

This is a real question. I am looking for a good place for a donut. Not a gut bomb with toppings or filling, just a good normal donut. Will this place give me a dirty look if I ask for a plain donut with cinnamon sugar or chocolate on it? Hurts is not known for normal donuts, they are more obscene....

Anyone heard where the Hurts Omaha location is going to be??

Dicks is more so sporting goods, REI is more outdoor gear. Two very different markets. Besides, malls of the past did just fine having 4+ department stores. My main point is get a relevant retailer, not one that’s on its way out Put it in the Container Store spot... which surely must be leaving soo...

Candy land is not a restaurant. Word is it is a new gentleman’s club.

Oh great.

Noticed today the Mt Fuji sign is gone-a few white work type vans parked in the lot.

Greg

The top floor has been closed off for a couple years.

Started grading the corner lot, "McDonald's Coming Soon" sign up.

Daughter works for HyVee-corporate just finished a layoff off 100 at corporate level-after a terrible first quarter. First layoffs in company history, with new CEO. The new Marketplace Cafes are not doing as well as expected and now opening in the Minneapolis market... Daughter is very disappointed ...
