The city of Omaha shows it as an alley with NO name.

Freaking Awesome Josh!

After the forum meet ended tonight at about 1:00 am... There was quite the line outside Barry O's for the portable hot-dog stand.

Brad- Jobbers' Canyon was listed on the National Register as it's own district before it was torn down. I am straining to see the similarities. I making the point that if someone tells me there are old ballparks all over the country, I could also say that there are old brick buildings over the co...

I WISH! Â I think they do a lot of pilot training also.

Its just as valuable as the Blackstone, Old Post office, Burlington station, Jobbers Canyon and on and on and on. You cried foul about Jobbers Canyon, every old city has or had a brick warehouse district. I do want a new Downtown Ballpark for Creighton and the Royals. Â The only reason I would suppo...

Also, Iowa Helicopter is in the process of purchasing another helicopter and having a new office in Council Bluffs to go along with their current location in Ankeny.

I don't like the idea of tearing down Rosenblatt, because it is so important in the history and legacy of Omaha... BUT....if they were to tear it down, that area would be great for a small-to-mid-sized amusement park. If they tear it down, I bet it would be part of the zoo. Â Besides we need a REAL...

Way to welcome the new guy.

I know you would be mad if someone came and upset over your threads...

I drove by on 72nd tonight, didn't look like anything yet.

Also, what's up with the lack of love? The thread was almost on the second page. Anyway, is it because it's not DT or what? I mean, a 12 story building that received high praise from Omaha by Design and will be a catalyst for their vision in a civicly important corridor for Omaha isn't substanti...

Show me some that SOLD for this. There is a big difference between ASKING and GETTING I know that's the same thing Chad for Ticket Express was saying, he thinks this game will fall right behind the NU Irish game and some people will buy $1500 tickets. Â I posted that to show crazy some people are...

That feed store fed the pigeons every day, there are hundreds of them around their property.

I forgot about this perspective I shot a while ago:

This year, Big Sports 590's weekly Monday Night Football Party will be at Ferral's in the 902 building.

That will be a nice new look to that intersection. Â What are they going to do with all the Freaking Pigeons?

McDonalds is doing the same thing in Sarpy County

When will we see a wrecking ball?

They were not lit up on the fourth:

And of course none of the city cams are pointed that way.

Great new toy! Â I NEED ONE!

I sure hope not. Â 2 a year is enough. Until they dump several million in to the Civic!

Great Video Jeff!

One thing I don't like, and one thing that I think diminishes the appearance of its size on the Omaha side, is the way it turns into a "land bridge" as it curls around. I wish they weren't doing that, but oh well. I still love it. Streets, that "Land bridge" area is aways from...

Its just perspective, the pics the towers look huge:

MTO the bridge is NOT small. Â Just wait until you are up on it. Â Its freaking huge.

BTW, the caps are 25 feet tall.

It looks to be owned by Gallup according to the image below. Â I also overlaid the sewers on to the lot to clear up another rumor, the lot is very usable:

By then end of September the caps should be here.
