Closing this Penney's is going to just kill that little mall. Gordman's has a store there too. Only thing that will keep it alive is the HyVee. Too bad

If they could ever decide what kind of retailer they are, they may have been successful. Stores like TJ Maxx, Marshall's & Home Goods are growing and other regular retail is shrinking & struggling. I say get out of apparel and concentrate on home decor or go full board off price clothing lik...

The other part of the rumor is that they are going to remodel the old Gordmans, ConAgra building next door & move the store into that. Other rumor is Kroger owns land across the street from the Irvington Walmart & they are building there. Who knows?!!!

With our store, the moves were made when the lease expired & then the owners signed a new one for the new location. We've been lucky that all of the spaces have been good in size and with one exception, good exposure and location. The mall usually waits until leases are up before they move store...

When we had a store at Mall of the Bluffs, they did give an allowance for remodel but there were trade offs, like a multi-year lease. That was back when GGP still owned it & the mall was in decline. Westroads doesn't do any of that as far as I know. They did do plumbing & electrical for H&am...

It was the mall that needed us to move. First we were relocated for DSW, then it was House of Hoops & then it was for Rue 21. When H&M was coming in, they tried to move the Afternoon & the owner didn't like any of the spots open, so she closed. She was one of the original tenants when th...

As an employee of a retailer that has been relocated 3 times in 13 years at Westroads, I can tell you that it is the retailer who pays for the relocation & remodel.

According to mall management "something" is going in up there, but were tight lipped as to what. That usually means nothing is signed yet. I do know that a "snack" shop that will sell candy, pop & other things is due to open near the food hall soon.

Could it be there's a West Omaha firebug? We know about the #NorfOmahaFireBug

Driving by 72nd & Grover this afternoon and noticed the price sign was off and then noticed all of the yellow caution tape. Anderson BP was locked up & closed. Wasn't aware they were closing, but with Bucky's right across the street...

Read an article yesterday about Sears/Kmart money problems and it seems their solution is to keep selling off anything profitable, like the Craftsman Tools to Black & Decker, their real estate to investors etc. They eventually will run out assets to sell! Once, when they were the #1 retailer, ba...

Turns out discarded smoking materials. Thank goodness. But has anyone else noticed all the fires in North Omaha since last fall? Several in vacant buildings/houses. Seems to be a fire bug

According to a news report I saw on KETV tonight, an employee of the VP Brix has been arrested for embezzling over $100,000. So many business are just breaking even & when someone steals that amount of cash, it's no wonder they had to close. The owners don't seem to be the bad guy here. There's ...

Locally owned 1200 Images at Westroads. We have all price points and can design anything! I've been working here for 13 years & I may be slightly biased but I think we do fantastic design & framing! Our pricing rivals the big boxes even with a % off. And your art never leaves the store to be...

We put a couple out with our trash & they were left on the lawn. So, now we know that Deffenbaugh/WasteManagement doesn't take them! There is the recycling center on South 60th between Q & Harrison that does have a glass bin. The bins are unattended, so maybe there?

I know his son Zach has run the dealership for the last few years after Wayne retired. It's ashamed, I always like to do business with locally owned companies. Both my sister & I have bought our vehicles there. But I guess perhaps it's hard to compete with the Anderson owned Performance/Baxter a...

While the ball park was built under Fahey, the need for the restaurant tax also began with him. Omaha had a financial crisis & he borrowed money from the Police & Fire pension fund to help fix the problem, with promises of taking care of the repayment on down the road. So we are now & fo...
