Also word is they aren’t going to build this new big building of the streetcar doesn’t pass in streetcar court or whatever. I can’t even imagine who thinks it’s a good idea to build a new giant building in a places like Omaha (or really most places) and especially right now.
Yeah, i was thinking the same thing. Man, save your money Mutual of Omaha, keep the old buildings / work from home and either invest the rest or give us new Wild animal kingdom content or whatever.
It makes no sense at all

Omaha is doing a $1b expansion of the airport which seems excessive given that it's Omaha. Also I'm terrified of what flying out of there is going to be like while they do it

Omaha has one of the best sushi restaurants on the planet for some reason. So that’s another thing folks.
