Downtown Hilton (1001 Cass St)

Hilton will be turning the lot in front of it where they usually have the CWS tents into a permanent Event space with Turf and possibly an outdoor bar.

The grass space?

Yes correct, should be all getting ripped up here somewhat soon.

Glad to hear that. I’ve long thought that grass lawn could be something more useful.

Hilton Omaha Set to Debut New Open-Air Event Venue in Early 2025

Nice writeup about the "Cass Street Green" in Grow Omaha. 15,000 sqft of turf event space. I'm curious how events will have bathroom access. If they have to enter the hotel, the space is only next to the parking garage, and having to have guests walk across the driveway to enter the lobby isn't ideal.

The Green is the bathroom, just like the grass pads at the airports for pets, duh

I used to do oncall event work at the Hilton downtown and they would put up a big tent during CWS in this area. They've just made it a little better for events like this and yeah, people had to go back into the hotel lobby next to the pool entrance to use the restroom.
