Home office of the cable TV monopoly in Omaha. 1980, the Omaha City Council solicited bids for different buried cable TV companies to wire Omaha. Cox stacked the deck and bribed the council members, won the contract for the city in a near perpetual renewal. Next renewal period is September 2011. The Omaha City Council holds public meeting once monthly on a Monday at the City building as a forum for public complaints.

Used to be the old Jewish Course. The Jews of Omaha built this course 1924 to escape discrimination. At that time, this was way far out west. Name changed to Ironwood in 2000, fell into receivership. Now being redeveloped for apartments and religious centers for 3 faiths. Nice place to play, nice clubhouse if it was only kept up. Shame it's going away.
