Omaha Fixes Blackstone Building Crisis | Omaha News

Omaha’s city government is footing the bill to either repair or demolish a vacant building in the Blackstone neighborhood after a dangerous sinkhole opened beneath it—right where the new streetcar line is being built. The site, once home to Brothers Lounge, is now a safety hazard, and officials are negotiating with owners while construction crews shield the area with tarps. The city’s investigation into how the hole formed is still ongoing, but their priority is securing the land, restoring sidewalks, and getting the project back on track—all funded by streetcar dollars.
