If the city wants to make the Riverfront and North Downtown happen, they need to really consider making I480 into a street-level boulevard. It's a big, grey, shady edifice. There needs to be some kind of urban pride project that decreases the psychological perception of 480 being a barrier. Add str...

So it's starting to sound like the Burlington coat factory on 120th and center.

Man....... Stothert did even worse then I thought she would. After all the name recognition and superior campaign war chest Stothert was only able to win a couple thousand more votes then Mello. You take the 10% of the voters for Taylor Royal and add them on to Mello and hes the next mayor. :yes: W...

War criminal Democrats? :roll: :koko: As above, people who vote parties. In this case the Bloc that would vote for a war criminal as long as there was a little D after their name. To wit the Dem primary where instead of Sanders, people voted for Hillary despite all of her shady baggage. That tends ...

I find it odd that any official rendering releases by this group seems to go back and forth between the original and updated office component design. I'm fairly certain the updated version is the one they're going with, regrettably, but I'm longing for the original design. I'm not sure what you mea...

According to a very reliable source, a redevelopment plan for the Conagra campus, know to some as "Project Canyon", will be announced this coming week. It will include a large mix of retail and office space, hundreds of apartments, and a hotel (this one is going to be HUGE for Omaha and V...

Orrrrrrr it could just be women who are owning and profiting off their sexuality. If that's what is going to make them happy and they're not being taken advantage of by someone over them, let them do it.

I only know of Maria's as a dance club.....I didn't even know it was a restaurant. I was in there once, regrettably. I believe they tried to sell themselves to those in power as a restaurant, but only about 25% of the space was for dining. It was like 3 booths and 5 tables with a kitchen window in ...

Sears has 'substantial doubt' that it can survive Sears Holdings is not even sure it can raise enough cash through loans and debt financing to survive. The company owes $4.2 billion, up from about $3 billion a year ago. It lost $2.2 billion in the fiscal year ending in January and has not turned an...

I thought they had more emphasis on being terrible 'restaurants' rather than any locale. I give this one less than a year.

I think you mean Latin themed. Spain is nowhere near Mexico.

Yeah but the last two were 'Spanish' themed, no?

I'm honestly surprised that they didn't buy out those ramshackle buildings behind Walgreens and put something else there. It's such a strange looking development.

Until the double tree closes or is aged into obsolescence, it should be left alone. Sorry, you can't implode your mistakes. Find another way to make 16th Street work. Someone floated the idea of making it like the Nicolette mall in Minneapolis. I like that idea. And a tunnel is an awful idea. Tunnel...

The idea of an arts society trying to extort the city is kind of adorable.

Stothert did not support Trump. She is in support of our city being a Sanctuary City haven and hideout for illegal aliens. Stother lied to us about repealing the restaurant tax.

If you want downtown to be rebuilt and look nicer then tell the City to look for companies willing to locate here and by companies I don't mean retailers, or insurance companies. I mean tech companies or something that Omaha would benefit from. Plus where would we put a 1.2 Billion dollar project o...

It would have had a little more impact if they had kept the slant in the roofline. I think once it's lit up, it'll look better.
