79 MPH is much too slow. That's approximately how fast many people drive on the interstates. The only advantage would be that you can sleep on the way to your destination.

I don't understand why we have to build so much stuff on places where historical buildings are located. Why not buy up the surface lots first? Why do we have to preserve the parking lot before we preserve our architectural history? After reading the last couple of posts I went and more thoroughly ex...

I'd love to see some neighborhoods in Omaha like they have in Minneapolis... beautifully maintained, historic, 1,000-1,500 sq foot bungalows with young, white collar, upper middle class professionals, many with kids. There may be one block in Dundee like this. I got a unique, close up look in on ...

Its kind of cool that it will be all done by October. It will surely help to draw pedestrian traffic out of the old market.
