The purpose of the project is to improve access for local emergency services and to improve safety through expanded capacity across the rail corridor.

The purpose of this project is to maintain a safe and efficient flow of traffic over the Broadway Viaduct by providing a facility that meets Iowa DOT's current design standards for a principal arterial highway. The Broadway Viaduct is part of U.S. 6 connecting Council Bluffs, Iowa, and Omaha, Nebraska, and needs to be replaced to maintain the connectivity between the two cities. The project is located within the City of Council Bluffs in Pottawattamie County, Iowa. This Environmental Assessment evaluates alternatives for improvements to the existing viaduct and replacing the viaduct, with viaduct replacement identified as the preferred alternative.

My Omaha Obsession takes the reader on an idiosyncratic tour through some of Omaha’s neighborhoods, buildings, architecture, and people, celebrating the city’s unusual history. Rather than covering the city’s best-known sites, Miss Cassette is irresistibly drawn to strange little buildings and glorious large homes that don’t exist anymore as well as to stories of Harkert’s Holsum Hamburgers and the Twenties Club. Piecing together the records of buildings and homes and everything interesting that came after, Miss Cassette shares her observations of the property and its significance to Omaha. She scrutinizes land deeds, insurance maps, tax records, and old newspaper articles to uncover a property’s singular story. Through conversations with fellow detectives and history enthusiasts, she guides readers along her path of hunches, personal interests, mishaps, and more. As a longtime resident of Omaha, Miss Cassette is informed by memories of her youth combined with an enduring curiosity about the city’s offbeat relics and remains. Part memoir and part research guide with a healthy dose of colorful wandering, My Omaha Obsession celebrates the historic built environment and searches for the people who shaped early Omaha.
