Any truth to this? This would be somewhere around their parking lot possible then in the direction of the baseball fields to the west

Yes, check out earlier posts in this thread. That was passed many moons ago...

Good thing it is for emergency only... Traffic on 114 is thick after 5...

This looks like a great building and Omaha is lucky to have them in a part of the city that is pretty centrally located when TD Ameritrade could have built along the 370 or past 200th and Dodge. It is fun to see the tower driving north on I680 when coming over the hill by Pacific Street.

Oh lordy, that would have been awful if they built waaay out in the wild wild west. A bland, nondescript sprawling suburban campus - ick.

I wonder if companies are noticing the exurban office developments, Coventry at 204th and Q in particular, that aren't living up to their potential and deciding the exurbs aren't the way to go. Coventry was supposed to be a mixed use development with offices, shopping, and residential developments. Five or so years later, it's just ACI's building, a partially completed lake, and a few houses in the middle of nowhere.

You have to think that the major market for the house next to the office would be people who work in the office. Pretty hard to swallow working that close to home. What if you get RIF'd or the job sucks and you move on then have to look at the place every day.

Just finished up with the ribbon-cutting ceremony. Had the governor and mayor give speeches beforehand. I'll try to post some pics later.

Passed by this last night. I have to say - it looks better at night. there isn't that bug zapper blue tint to it.

It looks kinda frosty. If it were a container, I'd be tempted to pour a glass of scotch into it.

The HQ building has been officially designated LEED Platinum certified now. Next will be to become Energy Star rated.

Over the past year, it's saved 50% on energy alone.

The City Council has removed the "blighted" designation and has now removed the TIF for the surrounding improvements, that being the trail bridge.

So now that the "Blighted" designation has come full circle, did it even affect the neighborhood one bit?

You didn't know 114th is the new old Park Ave now?

It is a pretty cool building to check out if you ever get a chance.

The tower wasn’t lit up tonight. Do they still light it at night?

It might be because it’s migratory bird season. They shut the lights off on the St. Louis arch for the month of September for that reason.

Random thing I noticed tonight. I was looking at my Aerial Photos from 2014 and I came across this photo I took. If Dodge Street went straight instead of shifting north and turning in to West Dodge Road, it would have run straight through the TD Ameritrade Tower...

There are not very many properties visible in that photo that have gone unchanged in the twelve years since.
