Can I request someone to update the Omaha General Development Thread on:

http://forum.skyscraperpage.com/showthread.php?t=215388

There are soooooo many projects that have been proposed, under construction, and completed.

Bomaha

No, the three story structure is the new building.

I've always thought they would make an excellent apartment project. That would be a lot of new residents in that area. Plus, right along the trail...appeal to the more active, etc. It's certainly possible. Someone contact Jay Noddle since it seems like he has a hand in everything these days. ;) http...

"Also, fans will be treated to special performances from ”O” by Cirque du Soleil, the aquatic masterpiece seen in Las Vegas."

Letting my rainbow flag fly.....YASSSSS KWEEENNN. That will be amazing.

Bomaha

I've always had the dream of them buying everything to the east and almost everything to the south a couple blocks. - South of the Rosenblatt site, that would be a new veterinary campus with partnership of University of Nebraska with dorms, etc. - Plot of land to the east of Bancroft elementary and ...

Nice!

Okay here it is. Please be aware that this is I think possibly the first time I have shown this to anyone. https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=z8sOViJrzaUI.k2GAHdIarGTw&usp=sharing Please note the following: These are pie-in-the-sky ideas. Some of the routes don't make perfect sense due to th...

I will need to break out my dream system maps, etc. I have nerded out and worked on them, on and off, for the past 10 years I think. Thanks Google My Maps for bringing them to fruition. :-) I have a streetcar system, which I just realistically tweaked, a light rail system, and a commuter rail "...

Bomaha

I am still thinking that eventually Hwy 370 could be turned into limited access freeway, at least from Hwy 75 to I80. Would it be difficult? Uhh, yeah, but I think it is necessary, especially for local traffic. All through traffic would go down to the Platteview Freeway. Yes, I realize there would b...

Bomaha

I just saw that! That's awesome. God, five years from now will be amazing. Even three years. Just wow.

Bomaha

Wait, she squashed the bridge? Was this in line with the "tax break" homeowners got?

Bomaha

Congrats!

Bomaha

I didn't know where to put this so here.....

Hopefully, developers here could get some inspiration, design-wise from some of the low/mid-rises that are going on in NYC. Just a random thought.

The More You Know.

Bomaha

From what I understood, they kind of alienated some parts of the LGBT community and made it almost just for families. There is nothing wrong with that. Minneapolis has a huge family contingent associated with their parade, festival, etc., but there needs to be a balance and something for everyone. M...

Bomaha

Pride moved to Aksarben, because a lesbian became President and wanted to make it more family-friendly. (insert bitter queen joke here) I am a fairly new to the "community", so I have not seen what it really was downtown, etc. However, attending the festivities for the past couple years ma...

Bomaha

That's my friend putting that up. He's an art professor at UNO. That's cool.

Bomaha

A friend clued me on a possible brand new building in the old market on one of the parking lots. It's supposed to be big. Vague, I know.

Disclaimer: My friend is kind of a a$$, so he could be feeding me |expletive|.

Bomaha

It's true and I am ridiculously excited. Carne asada nachos!

Bomaha

It looks like a large section of Omaha has been updated on Google Maps. Shows Dodge street resurfaced EB lanes, etc. So like a month ago or so? Didn't do any more research than that. :-)

Bomaha

If that WOWT article is correct, add Saks Fifth Avenue to the list.

Bomaha

As a former employee of said business, from what I understand, the daughter is the accountant/bookkeeper, etc. Then again, I was last employed by them three or four years ago, so things could have changed. And even though this is probably biased, yes, it is whining, especially from that family. :-)

I like it!

How about we shoot for both? We could easily stay one of the sports capitals of the country for decades. Go big or go home!

Bomaha

Speculating eh Brad? Let me speculate: 3 stories and approx 100,000 sf. :;): Most likely not what all of you were hoping for. Is this true and/or correct information? Because you are "new to the neighborhood" and don't know any better, I will let you know that his post was sarcasm.

Bomaha

That map looks so similar to the one I made on some scratch paper awhile ago. Granted I expanded it quite a bit. :-) I had no time on my hands and even created timetables, mileage, and dream ridership stats. :-) I will have to scan and upload it here. I think I had about 50 miles of streetcar lines....

Pretty sure that the one on 24th and vinton is still open and self wash.

You will obviously categorize this in the rumor section of this particular thread, but a friend from work is in an architecture class and had a guest lecturer, the Omaha city planner. Apparently, nordstroms and macys are set for here and they are trying desperately to get rid of Sears. They want th...

Also, from the baffoon at work. Apparently, hyatt or whoever there wanted TIF financing and didn't get it or the city wouldn't give it to them but told them that if they build on 10th and Jackson they would get it. I honestly think its just something to one up me because I know everything before hi...

Bomaha

No, that's correct, the fifth lane is only between the western 80/29 split and 13th, where it will exit. I'm like 95 percent sure.

Bomaha

Sorry, I was referencing a post I sent in the crossroads thread. My bad. This guy from work is in an architecture class I believe at UNO. They had a guest lecturer come in and it was the Omaha city planner, who told some things and showed them more plans about crossroads and was also talking about t...

Never mind I was wrong, I just read page 1. That might've helped. Still might look a little out of place, though. But it might just be me.

Bomaha

Don't get me wrong, I want more development and any or almost anything is a good thing. But won't something that looks like 22 floors kind of be out of place at that corner.

I might be thinking of the corner across from giovanni (sp). Sorry, if I was wrong.

Bomaha

it looks great guys!!!! quick note, on the living in MW slide on the homepage i believe, it says a DOWTOWN address for less. Just letting you know. sorry I don't mean to be a pain.
