Downtown Map
The Old Market is Omaha's most historic neighborhood popular with locals and visitors alike. The cobblestone streets are home to a diverse mix of shopping, galleries, restaurants, taverns and people-watching.
No Old Market Visit is complete without trying Ted & Wally's premium homemade ice cream. Flavors change daily so plan accordingly.
The Capitol District is Omaha's destination dining and entertainment district surrounding a modern town square. It’s the urban spot where fun-seekers can live, eat and drink in one community—all within walking distance of Omaha’s best civic, cultural and entertainment venues.
Go for a walk to Iowa with Bob the Bridge! It is not often you can stand in two EPSCoR jurisdictions at once with a beautiful view of the iconic Missouri River. As you know, every good bridge has a troll. Find Omar, the Bob's troll, to take a fun picture and rub his toes for good luck.
