Damn I’m glad my pictures didn’t work those are awesome.

At this point give it to him.

Anyway the new parking ramp has LED lights that change from white to red.

MTO

I didn’t know it was going to do that.

It’s nice to see a dirt hole but I just hope it’s not another dig and sit project.

Affirmative Ghostwrider.

Well there can always be a retrofit but thankfully there are more entertainment districts coming maybe they’ll have them.

MTO

Kinda disappointing that the mixed use space is only 3 stories. Originally it was proposed to be 8. There was rumor that it was going to be taken out, so I would rather have a sustainably sized 3 stories that will be filled than a 3/4ths empty 8 story, or have an open gap in the lot. The rendering ...

It’s about time to get the Brad-copter spun up.

MTO

That one on 49th is stalled out.

The hotel on Saddle Crik has had dirt pushed around but no construction yet.

MTO

Foundation work is under way.

But by then it’ll be time for another study..

MTO

The media said they were going to consider nearby residents complaints in regards to flight paths to reduces noise. |expletive| them! saving lives is more important then their decibel comfort.

MTO

There are scenarios in many major cities where institutions such this WISH! they had land set aside. So I don’t blame them its a very wise long term strategic move. And we wouldn’t get more then a five story building anyway..

MTO

There is a 6 story building literally smack dab in the middle of the neighborhood. I can't picture this, what/where is it? 49th and Underwood: http://douglascone.wgxtreme.com/java/wgx_douglasne/ImageServlet?type=photo&accountid=R0953770000&econarea=39&bldgid=1 Forgot about that one. Alm...

I just drove by this to see for myself.. it's just sad this thing is falling through. It's hard to overstate how important it would be for the community.

MTO

They are going to town on this which given the obligatory dirt lot period construction should start in a year or two.

Its awesome. You can see its glow driving south on saddlecreek from the north for quite a ways.

What's Brad doing in North Omaha after dark?

I forget how lame our skyline is.

Something must give.. the city needs to force his hand get something in writing and sue him after the next deadline.

That reminds me how annoying it is when "they" say (depending on the person and year) that Denver or Austin etc is the fastest growing metro. When that title goes to Los Angeles, in the time Austin's metro adds 200,000 the L.A. Metro adds 800,000. Although by rate, Austin is growing much ...

So does The Don have the revised Lincoln CSA numbers? Ask The Don, and you will receive- Lincoln- 2015 CSA: 344,690.. Lincoln- 2016 CSA: 348,720.. A 4030 population gain of 1.2% 15 to 16 (Omaha's gain was 1%)... Ciao..LiO..,Peace That reminds me how annoying it is when "they" say (dependi...

How can tertiary communities like Valparaiso, Telbasta, Herman, Dunlap etc be considered part of the metro while closer Fremont not be. There's >952,069 in the area!! That's 960,886 according to the 2016 Omaha CSA estimate, lol.. But I think you're on to something. it's very possible the US Census ...

MTO

I've always contended and will stand by the eventual Omaha/Lincoln CSA (It might take a decade to happen..but mark my words- it will)..I know it's on another level, but look at the Dallas/Ft Worth CSA now including counties in southern Oklahoma nearly 100+ miles away.. Sheesh... Ciao..LiO...Peace I...

So groundbreaking next year then?

MTO

If they're not going to do anything with this chell then get that damn barrier out of the way. It's very uninviting and foreboding I can see why people are not touring the area. Unless there are holes in the sidewalk push that billboard wall against the building.

The typical update cycle for an Store is 11 years.

Just for fun, here is the Omaha CSA 2015 - 952,018 +10,853 2014 - 941,165 +8,975 2013 - 932,190 +9,813 2012 - 922,377 +8,419 2011 - 913,958 +9,144 2010 - 904,814 ~9440.8 So I am guessing 2016 - 961,459 2017 - 970,900 2018 - 980,341 2019 - 989,782 2020 - 999,223 2021 - 1,008,664 Barring any recessio...

Ideally, I would still like to see a residential high rise whether it be apartment or condos, or a combination of both. And there's no reason why we couldn't get one there they are trendy right now they're popping up all across the country. But they better hurry before the economy turns these build...

Awesome we need to hear more employment news for the area.

That would be a pain in the |expletive| to put up and take down a giant video screen every year. The take down these 4 large video screes every fall, clean them, store them, and put them back up in the spring. Way bigger than that one in Lincoln. bristol.JPG Sounds very expensive you think the dist...

MTO

it's almost becoming cliche. I think we already passed that point. It's all just buzzwords and misspellede names. This city just keeps saying F-You to it's core. If Omaha didn't annex Elkhorn, then it would be a story of how Elkhorn was expanding. I'll bet everything in my pocket to everything in y...
