That article is full of FAKE NEWS! Then to appropriately voice your concern(s), WRITE A LETTER TO THE EDITOR! Lol...

That's the beauty of Omaha. When others say it can't be done or it's not feasible, Omahans step up and take charge. Who needs a Hy-Vee downtown?

Relative that lives in the area told me about it. I also wonder if that means they are leaving Elkhorn? BBQ has a hard time making it in Omaha it seems like and what may be popular in the suburbs may not be so in the city. Look at Parker's Smokehouse.

I think the streetcar is going to happen and as a result there will be a drive to build bigger, higher occupancy buildings along Farnam and Harney. The one thing I worry about is the number of sitting duck single family homes that are more common to this area than I realized. Many of these homes ar...

Love your enthusiasm about Omaha. Hate that I don't understand what some of the posts have to do with the topic at hand. I have the feeling the feeling that if infrastructure begins on this and Crossroads hasn't broken ground yet, Crossroads isn't happening. The people who would have lived at Cross...

Per Paul Hammel / World-Herald Bureau:

Aksarben Stock Show is moving to Grand Island after 89 years in Omaha

That's all she wrote. They didn't even have the parade this year. I worked parking this year and attendance was bleak. Hard to replace the "real" Aksarben. It'll boom in GI.

The 2050 group hopes to start construction for the streetcar within the next 5 years and have plans for it delivered to the Mayor's office by this summer. This is according to KETV channel 7. Sounds like "pie-in-the-sky" but you never know with legitimate players in the mix. http://www.ket...

If the city puts up the majority of the money for the streetcar and provides TIF for building this area out when the main lobbyists, Mutual, UNMC, and Kiewit stand to make millions in development this will be an especially galling example of corporate welfare. These developers should be putting sub...

BTW, Heath Mello tried to pass a bill last year in the legislature to help the development of Crossroads. The bill went nowhere. Yates also contributed to Heath Mello's mayoral campaign this year. I wouldn't expect any movement on Crossroads 'til after the mayoral election. And if Mello wins, I woul...

Not having reverse cost the city a lot of money. Wonder why they can't come in from the other side? How close is the other side to the Missouri river or the UPRR? They may not have room to get a device down there. Also, this would require pretty serious survey work to avoid missing the existing tun...

I have stayed at 3 different Aloft Hotels. They use their ultra modern design to cover up for very small rooms and minimal amenities.
