84th and Center

Post by omahastylee459 »

I take center every day to work and have noticed a few changes, and I wanted to know if anyone knew what was going on here. They are building a new office building which is almost completed on center, which is now right across the street from cosmos, but i noticed yesterday that they tore cosmos down! I am not sure what they want to build there or who the tenant in the new office building is, anyone know?

I believe there is going to be a Credit Union built at this site, although I do not know which one.

The 84th and Center area is seeing a lot of redevelopment action right now. You have the old Cozmo's site, the lot across the street from it, Nebraska Organ Recovery is remodeling their building at 8502 West Center, and I heard through the grapevine that one of the many Lund partnerships recently put Better Business Equipment's old building under contract to buy.

i believe it was similar to sonic, kind of a 50's feel to it, but was still fast food. I heard they had good food and malts, but never went there.

Yes, why not? There should be some architectural standards for all kinds of development. It is common out here (even in the suburbs) for banks to build attractive buildings.

The bank at the southwest corner of 16th and Dodge has nice architecture.
