Does that possibly include a butter churn?

To douse gas on the D.T. grocery rumors...nearly 1000 more people got to eat somewhere! No?
Stothert reiterated on Grow Omaha that several developers want a full service grocery store in their development. I'm sure Hines is one of them for the Mercantile.

If Medical Solutions is the medical company that npdodger referenced earlier and One Medical does come to the Mercantile like they said, I would bet One Medical would be on the ground floor of the residential tower as they have done in other cities like KC.

In that case what better place for One Medical folks to reinvest their paychecks than at Amazon Fresh.

I might be slow grasping this rumor, but what is the connection between Medical Solutions and One Medical? I would not think they would locate in the same development unless they were affiliated. Also, I am not aware of a local presence for One Medical and I just don't see them opening an office in Omaha (I hope I'm wrong). On the other hand, I 100% could see Medical Solutions moving to The Merchantile.

Agreed here..

Which is why when the Cryptic Rumor Department presented me this intel, it was also communicated that perhaps Medical Solutions is the “health” component here as opposed to One Medical which was posted by nedodger12 a week or so ago…

I mean, it was on my "list of things we need" secret list. But With everything else, I felt like belonged more on my "By 2030 wishlist" so I demoted it from my annual list.

Maybe thats the Omaha secret. I give up on something happening soon and then it gets done.

I mean, I was also this close *measures infinitesimal distance with fingers* of giving up on some sort rail and moving to Seattle a year ago. Now we have the street car coming and I bought a townhouse.

I am late to the Medical Solutions party, but I find this rumor interesting on a couple fronts. Wasn't there a rumor at some point that Medical Solutions was destined to be the major tenant at Crossroads? If that was the case and if this rumor is true, Crossroads just lost a huge tenant, and what happens there? Second, I thought I had read recently that Medical Solutions has a primarily remote workforce (hence C&A Industries building on West Dodge has been vacant since the acquisition). This isn't necessarily directed at your Cowboy, but does someone have insight on the current/future work policies for Medical Solutions?

What I can say, based on feedback from the Cryptic Rumor Department, is that Medical Solutions has decided to switch gears from a potential Crossroads location..and will now move to the Mercantile. Don’t have an answer for your question regarding Medical Solutions current/future work policies..But I do have information, from VERY reliable sources, that Medical Solutions now plans to locate at The Mercantile development..

Stay tuned…

Ok, so I wasn't imagining that. I am sure Lockwood can find other tenants, but I am really stoked about Medical Solutions at the Mercantile. Hope the official announcement comes soon.

Follow up question. Didn't the original plan already include event space? It was planned for the end of Farnam on the HOA lakeshore. Are you talking about another event space?

Npdodger12 · Post by **Npdodger12** » Fri Jan 20, 2023 10:34 am

New event space is for hotel and will include both indoor and elevated outdoor space. I can’t give more info on SFAB, but it’s going to be sweet!

The Army's Security Force Assistance Brigade is building a top secret yet sweet office space in downtown Omaha? Did they ensure the garage structure is tall and wide enough to park fit all the Humvees and tanks?

Npdodger12 · Post by **Npdodger12** » Fri Jan 20, 2023 11:14 am

SFAB has nothing to do with the military or the Seattle Freight Authority Board. All I can say is SFAB is going to be very sweet! 31,000 sqft CityT coming soon.

SFAB, CityT...what does it all mean!!

CityT has notes of mint and garlic. Sip it, don't slurp. It isn't like English Breakfast.

Here, here, here. I got it. SFAB isn't a literal acronym but code. Broad Sustainable Building in China does those prefab high rises. S (sustainable) FAB (prefrabricated). No only is the Mercantile going to have the tallest mass timber building in Omaha, it will also have the tallest prefabricated one! Haha.

almighty_tuna · Post by **almighty_tuna** » Fri Jan 20, 2023 12:45 pm

I'm going with City Target. Those stores are generally in that size range.

Wow, didn't know about small format Targets. Looks like they dropped that moniker back in 2015, but they are still doing the small format stores, near colleges or in urban centers. That would be a very nice addition to downtown and making it more livable.

The amount of mocking/negativity in this post is kinda sad tbh. I know it's just joking around but It's a "rumor" forum - what do people expect?? That doesn't mean what's being reported is untrue but until something offical comes out (if it ever does), take it for what it is - a "rumor" that we all hope is true.

I'm guessing this person (or the person providing the info) has signed an NDA so they have to be EXTREMELY careful with what they say. Projects get pushed back all the time - especially these days. Again, it doesn't mean it's untrue. Now if we are still talking about this 2 years from now and nothing has happened, sure - then mock away and doubt.

It comes from having repeatedly been fed rumors of incredibly exciting projects that have turned out to be completely false and only posted for the poster's amusement. Working in an industry adjacent to real estate development and land use planning, the projects detailed in this rumor as well as the supposed timeline of announcements and construction milestones have thrown a lot of red flags for me as being improbable. That said its possible there are components that are not being explained well by the poster.
