Re: Downtown Soccer Stadium (Abbott Drive)
So is this supposed to be a pro-soccer team? There's already a soccer stadium downtown by the I-480 viaduct.

Re: Remember When...
Anybody remember when Target had automatic doors for only their exits, but not their entrances? This was back in the 70's and 80's. When I lived in Omaha in the 80's, my mom would go to Target frequently. The one on 132nd and West Center. We'd go with her. But anyway, I remember back then that they...

Re: Omaha Eppley Airfield
I guess that makes sense. Now regarding my picture, I basically took the current plan to expand Eppley and tried to build and/or expand on it . I guess I didn't do a very good job, did I? For the record, I wasn't trying to make Eppley like Minneapolis/St. Paul (MSP) or O'Hare (ORD). Omaha's not even...

Re: Omaha Eppley Airfield
I wouldn't be surprised if Eppley got expanded again years from now. Maybe something like this? I know it's stupid and unrealistic and more than likely won't ever happen, but I thought I'd try it anyway.

Re: Crossroads Never Existed?
When Crossroads underwent its extension in the mid-to-late 80's, they added that north wing leading to Dillard's. It was 2 floors. But the original east-west wing remained only 1. So if they had indeed extended the second floor above the original ground level between Sears and Brandeis, later Younke...

I'm amazed Nebraska actually pulled off such an upset. They're now 13-3. I hope they can keep this momentum up for the rest of the season. If so, they'll have a very real chance of getting invited to the Big Dance in March.

Crossroads Never Existed?
Okay, here's a wild thought. Let's say that Crossroads Mall never gets built. Instead, something else goes in at 72nd and Dodge. So because there's no Crossroads, there's no Sears there. But then in 1967-68 when Westroads is built, Sears goes there instead? This also affects Dillard's. In the late 8...
