Our new downtown parks renovation is the same architect as Myriad Gardens, our new tallest tower is the same architect as Devon Tower, and our new streetcar will connect our Midtown to our warehouse...
At Maples now. Enjoying it a lot. I am staying around 16th and Broadway and debated between a Lyft or just walking. The 1.5 mile walk won out bc of the plesant weather and boy am I glad it did. 16th...
Going to be in town tomorrow evening.
What are the new must hit dinner or drink spots? I wouldn't mind giving the streetcar a spin, but not a deal breaker if there is a different district or...
Hey congrats guys!! Big day for a city that has had a ton of them the past two decades. This will only accelerate your urban growth.
I will need to get back down there and take a ride sometime...
Thanks! OKC's ability to get a city wide sales tax increase for these things is pretty unique it seems.
Is this project entirely funded though the MAPS Funds or are there other sources involved like TIF money or donations? Omaha is trying to get a streetcar up and running by 2021 and just recently...
That is some seriously top notch human scale development on that street. Way too often now a days new urban developments are foux urban and don't really enhance the street much. Kudos to the...
It is pretty well known up here that the most attractive part of the company isn't really the Cabela's retailer, but instead their credit card business. I am sure most of the stores will stay open...

Currently hiring for a location in Omaha. Someone said on the Omaha forum that they are already looking at a...
Just for the record. US Swimming Officials have said they can't use NBA or NHL arenas b/c the pool begins to be installed in late May and would conflict with potential playoff dates.
The 2020...
Go Mavs ;).
Was at the neighborhood beer shop earlier today and noticed a can with a tornado on it and decided to check it out. Picked it up and sure enough said made in OKC on it. Had to give it a shot.

Flying home from College Station soon. I'll sure be disappointed if Easterwood is better than Eppley!
Get to fly into Love direct on SW for that trip though, thank goodness for the Wright...
Eppley isn't much to write home about. Its best asset is that it is really close to downtown.

This was kind of a fun read though. A The Oklahoman sportswriter blogged about her trip to Omaha to cover OSU for the NCAA Tournament this March. I did enjoy seeing the city through another's eyes....
Preface: I don't think OKC and Omaha are competitors for anything really. OKC is much larger and growing very fast, while in the same region we don't overlap spheres of influence, we don't compete...
Yeah the name was meant as a sort of joke toward the reality of most of the state vs my reality or what I wish for the future of our cities. Omaha has very little "urban" about it as well so...
I got a good kick out of this.
At least this ridiculous news is making the national headlines rather than the fact that our son of a billionaire Governor is trying keeping us as the only state...
List of best cities for millennials led by OKC, Omaha and Austin.
The 15 Best U.S. Cities for Millennial College Students
Apparently they have looked into moving into the Omaha market.
I really like what we are doing over a vast "urban"(not terribly urban) area that needs to be redeveloped. A big difference I noticed from my trips(they are brief) in OKC is that you guys generally...
Yeah, the growth issue kind of stumps me sometimes. We land on all those "Top 10 Lists" all the time. In reality the southern cities are the ones booming, add in cities with gas and oil and you...
I wouldn't consider OKC a "Peer" for Omaha in general, OKC is up a tier. I see a lot of similar attributes between the cities, but that is quickly changing. OKC's growth is a game changer, I really...
Congrats OKC!! What a wonderful development that every city in the nation would love to have.
