大奥马哈的城市核心
该地区城市核心的战略规划适应、改变和成长.
奥马哈的心和灵魂的愿景.
城市从不停滞不前. They are either growing and moving forward, or they are declining and falling behind. 发挥我们的潜能, Omaha must reaffirm and reinforce the urban core’s historic role as the cultural, 娱乐, 居住和就业中心.
This long-range vision for Omaha connects communities while supporting neighborhoods in and surrounding the core. It looks to create jobs and provide living opportunities for all ages and incomes. 它吸引游客, inspires investment and enhances the quality of life for everyone in the region.
这不是一个短期的解决办法, but a long-term plan to help Omaha become a model metropolitan area that others aspire to.
专注于我们所有人的未来
We’ve set ambitious goals and a powerful vision for a transformed urban core in Omaha. This strategic plan is a blueprint for a collection of investments and projects that will help accomplish major goals for a forward-looking metro.
增加密度
This plan seeks to attract 30,000 residents and 30,000 jobs to the urban core over the next 20 years.
全机动系统
以现代有轨电车项目为锚, 该计划旨在简化人们的入住方式, 在城市核心周边. 看看ConnectGO 了解更多关于交通运输的信息.
城市形态
Reclaiming land for development creates seamless, active corridors from one neighborhood to the next.
锚的项目
The strategic plan target area is anchored on both ends by two already announced projects. To the east is the RiverFront redevelopment and Mutual of Omaha headquarters. 西边是UNMC和他们正在进行的NExT项目. 它们之间是前市民礼堂的旧址, ready for redevelopment with a city-selected preferred developer. With these three transformational investments leading the way, the urban core will continue to grow up throughout the corridor.
现代有轨电车
A total mobility system is essential to a high functioning urban core. 为了实现这一目标, 提出了初步的有轨电车路线 for the Farnam Street corridor, from 10th Street west to UNMC. This 3-mile route will have 13 stops along its route, 10-minute peak frequency, and be fare free.

道奇公园重建计划
Dodge Park is a City-owned golf course located on the east side of the Missouri River in Council Bluffs, 就在奥马哈市中心的河对面. With the total number of rounds decreasing at Dodge Park golf course, the time is right to consider an alternative use for the site. A preferred option would be to construct a new walkable urban neighborhood. 这个地方的社区离工作地点很近, 无障碍文化设施,融入自然. 一个步行, mixed-use neighborhood would provide the lifestyle options that would allow the urban core to attract and retain talent at a national level.
i - 480的盖子
I-480 acts as a barrier between the adjacent neighborhoods – limiting bicycle and pedestrian crossings and negatively impacting development potential. 道格拉斯号, Farnam, and Harney Street bridges nearing the end of their lifespans, the time is right to consider alternatives to bridge replacement. A preferred alternative would be the construction of a LID. The east-west and north-south street network could be reconnected, and public open space could be developed over the interstate.

我们是如何来到这里的.
The Chamber’s Urban Core Committee was formed in 2018 with the goal of maximizing the economic development and overall vitality of Greater Omaha’s urban center, including downtown and midtown Omaha and the western edge of Council Bluffs. 自成立以来, the Urban Core Committee has overseen the commission of several impactful studies and the development of an 城市核心战略规划.
随着战略计划的完成, the vision and goal-setting stages of the Urban Core Committee’s work has concluded, and we are preparing to embark on a path toward implementation. In fact, several projects envisioned in the strategic plan are already underway.
治理研究
方法:
The study’s author interviewed numerous urban core stakeholders to identify what they saw as the need for the core and how an organization devoted to the core could help. The study looked at five successful downtown organizations in other cities as well as some similar models.
住宅市场分析
方法:
Study included stakeholder interviews and identified the number of potential households both currently within the Omaha area and those moving into the area that would be interested in an urban lifestyle. The study looked at income ranges, housing type preferences, and potential price ranges.
零售市场分析
方法:
The study aimed to quantify the demand for a range of retail establishments within the core. It was initially completed prior to the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic in early 2020. 结果是, it was felt that the initial report did not accurately reflect the urban core retail market in a post-pandemic environment. 该报告于2021年5月更新.
