Hot take: Lot B

Hotter take: Along Farnam between 480 and Turner Park.

Absolute Insanity: Between Leavenworth/Jones and 9th & 7th

All hot takes indeed!…

Both the 12z GFS and ECMWF forecast models are showing a continued warm up with most (if not all) of our snowpack melting by February 1st and high temps around or slightly above 50 degrees. Maybe our stretch here in January will be the only real "Winter" weather we get this year? Probably...

I have a feeling this will be a Downtown/North Downtown core development announcement..

Having said that, it’ll probably be the exact opposite..

Stay tuned…

Frontier is adding DFW to OMA

Nice additional option “get”…

I was hoping they’d stay at 18. Moving up one spot is an added bonus

I own the bar. Bobby bobs1981 said it perfectly. Everyone is welcome. When did drinking and having a good time become political? I love you all and hope to see you when we do open. I really think we have something special, and I’d like to share it with everyone. White, black, brown, gay, straight, ...

What a great video..

It's interesting about the Eppley project. In my own opinion this is a game changer Omaha hasn't seen since the convention center/arena project. I know Mutual's building & the streetcar are big but Eppley is, as I say, a game changer. I don't even think it's about the money. And I think that's ...

This was one of (if not the) the best college basketball games I’ve watched this season.. Honestly, win or lose, I was proud of the Jays heart and toughness..especially coming off a dismal loss to UConn.. Winning 4 of the last 5 in the Big East “ain’t” too shabby either.. Happy Birthday skinzfan… Ci...

Stormchaser, I’d think those are more common in the Great Lakes region and pretty rare for Eastern Nebraska?… Correct, more common with lake effect snow I'm sure but going forward, they probably won't be all that rare (they are just relatively new so most areas haven't seen them issued yet)... Than...

I think in the end, in my neck of the woods- the 120th to 132nd and West Center area, we got about 3 inches.. And I’d never, EVER heard of a “Snow Squall” until it popped up as a notification on my phone yesterday about 4:30-5pm.. Stormchaser, I’d think those are more common in the Great Lakes regio...

The “it’s only 2 more gates!” thing kills me. I could understand it if there were too many flights per gate and you couldn’t get a seat in the terminal because you were waiting for the previous flight to board….but that’s never, ever the case. Singular point of security, plenty of restaurant/retail...

Regarding beans in chili, I have several family/friends who don’t like them in their chili either. I personally don’t mind it either way- with or without beans.. I don't mind pinto beans in reasonable amounts (my preference is for none at all), but kidney beans are a definite show-stopper. They jus...

Definite progress..

Even in the snow and cold

I’ll probably go through the Runza Drive through tonight and snag a bowl of their chili, which is pretty good. I don't mind their chili, but I really prefer mine without beans and so I find myself picking around the beans. There was a t-shirt vendor at this year's AppleJack festival selling a "...

Other than “Dave’s Hot Chicken” opening a 2nd location at 49th and L, has anyone had any recent fast food experiences they’d like to share? Good or bad..First ever visit or numerous time return?..

Oh my. Ladies and gentlemen, I am in heaven. What city am I in? What planet am I on? I might actually be high. I'm so happy, endorphins are flooding my brain. I'm totally blown away. I've finally found a restaurant that does spicy, and they MEAN it. Extremely satisfied! This appears to have been a ...

I guess when I’m in the mood for an unhealthy fast food meal, having this “Dave’s Hot Chicken” isn’t a bad thing from a variety standpoint…

From the W-H this morning- “Roomier boarding gates. Larger baggage claim. One unified passenger concourse. More restaurants and shops. A giant glass-domed entrance. All that is in the works at Eppley Airfield as part of the airport’s $950 million terminal modernization program, announced today by th...

Let’s hope this “Clipper System” clips somewhere else.. I’ve had enough of the snow to last a winter and this extreme cold is insanely ridiculous..

35 degrees will feel like a tropical heatwave…

This place is okay, nothing to turn cartwheels over.. Now Whataburger is a different story… Ciao..LiO…Peace Whataburger is by far the worst hamburger I've ever eaten. Keep it far away from Omaha. Whataburger is fine, but not nearly as good as Shake Shack or In N Out. I think its funny that because ...

I just took a quick walk around my neighborhood and it’s starting to spit out some flurries. But nothing slick or sticking as of yet. It’s 33 degrees outside currently…

A good friend of our family used to work real estate, and I remember when she told us that her company helped bring TGIFridays into the Omaha market. I think that was probably in the early or mid 1990s. It was a “big” thing back then as Omaha was one of the few larger markets that lacked the chain....

Remember when Culvers had Bone-in Fried Chicken? Relatively speaking, it was not that long ago that they ended it. Maybe 5 - 7 years. IMO, it was excellent, and I would order it more often than a burger there. Thank you! It seems like hardly anyone remembers this. The employees and managers I've me...

With it officially being 2024 now, do we have any up-to-date numbers on how close the Omaha metro is to 1 million people? This release from the city (Aug, 2021) said "The Omaha metropolitan area is expected to surpass one million residents in the next three years." https://www.cityofomaha...

I see..

A 2nd location. That makes sense…

Didn’t this place just open in the Capitol District? If it were to close or close and reopen at another metro location, now- it would likely set a record for the fastest closing after opening in Omaha history, Lol.. Wouldn’t make much sense to me..but then again, in the crazy world we live in, what ...

I have been wondering what this section here is? Will this be part of the structure eventually or just temporary for construction and eventually be outside the building footprint? mutual-01-04.JPG I can see column rebar sticking up near the edge of that formwork. So I would guess that area will be ...

I was there this past Friday afternoon..

The Luminarium and also the outside park area was full of folks- adults and children, enjoying this amenity..The place was popping..

The Luminarium is a fantastic addition to our downtown, city and metropolitan area!…

Funny seeing complaints about the "Boxy Buildings". People that have been around this forum for a long time will remember when members complained if it wasn't a modern box, calling it "Disneyland Architecture". LOL. We have now come full circle. I think a lot of the renderings w...

What floor do you think they’ll be at this exact time next year? My Mutual source told me (and this is his opinion only) that by the end of 2024, the facade of the tower might be topped out.. I don’t see it as that quickly, but we’ll see. He did indicate construction of the skyscraper will be compl...

Great pic updates guys

Really seeing the progress…
