Agreed. Lets hope they open up development for something bigger and better.

Curious question: Why was the north tower condemned in the first place? I saw something mentioned earlier in the thread about asbestos removal. Was that it?

It could always be worse... Check out these creepy baby sculptures from Prague: http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7198/6786528476_d129ce2c72_z.jpg Creepy, yes, but the sculptor (David Cerny) has some "interesting" views of the world as expressed in his art. What was being expressed here?

"Thanks Mr. Stothert for working for the fire dept. as a physician for 20 years, the last 4 of which you did for free. However, your wife just beat our efforts, so you are fired." And then there are the flyers that violated election laws that originated from the fire-fighter's union hall...

I'm kind of neutral on the whole thing... I don't hate it, but I'm not doing backflips over it either...

Uh, this thread only exists because someone is overly sensitive about their hometown. It shouldn't even be here.

Really?

We still use a fax machine at work. Some systems never die, just slowly fade away. They might be required to use a fax machine for legal reasons. That's the premise with my job. When they first wrote HIPAA, faxing the most common method of quick file transmission. Plus, as far as I know, you can't ...

It's a shame about Southport, I was just so excited because I live nearby.

Last thing I recall is they were waiting to see what Nebraska Crossing was going to do. That, and probably Shadow Lake, would be their biggest competition. Nebraska Crossing since then has begun an ambitious overhaul. The original structures are pretty much demolished as of last month. I wonder ...

Thank god they have now correctly identified where she is from, I'm sure Council Bluffs is so proud to be put on the map by Farrah.

Going to be a picnic site for the zoo outside the main zoo area. Also a Tribute to the Blatt

Oh okay. That's what I had thought, but I wasn't sure.

It would have been interesting if they had made Hwy 370 from I 80 to Bellevue an interstate... Too much development around it now for that to happen. I don't see another beltway happening in Omaha for a long time.

It's always odd what they steal and what they don't. Maybe they were admirers of your work. And thought they could use the tent for ... recreational purposes?

Anyway, I don't frequent places where fine art is sold but if I do I'll keep an eye peeled. Good luck finding it all.

Aw damn, I'm sorry, Brad. How the heck did that happen?

I would be more than happy to help plan and organize a massive party to send the Civic and Crossroads to the scrap heap haha.

Dear Mods, feel free to move or delete per your discretion if this thread exists elsewhere.
