Omaha’s New Soccer Home Unveiled

Omaha just pulled off a major win—officially purchasing 25 acres in North Downtown for over $18 million to become the permanent home of Union Omaha. The city’s betting big on this move, pairing it with the Men’s College World Series and World Cup buzz to fuel growth. Once owned by Union Pacific, the land still allows rail access for historic passenger cars. Plans include a $140 million stadium and mixed-use development with apartments, restaurants, and seamless connections to Millwork Commons. The city’s using smart financing and building critical infrastructure like a new sewer treatment plant—all while leasing the space to Union Omaha. The COO is thrilled, calling it a step toward true downtown soccer glory. This isn’t just a stadium—it’s a transformative urban leap for North Downtown, reshaping Omaha’s skyline and energy.
