Omaha Pride Shines in Boxing, Sports, Biz, and Community Service on Local Pulse
Good morning, this is Omaha Local Pulse for Saturday, September thirteenth, twenty twenty-five. Let’s get started with what’s happening here at home.
We’ll begin with a big burst of local pride as hundreds of Omaha residents have traveled to Las Vegas this weekend. They’re showing their support for Bud Crawford, Omaha’s own boxing star, as he prepares for what many call the fight of the year, facing off with Canelo Alvarez. Whether you’re in the city or watching at home, there’s a palpable energy and excitement surrounding Bud’s latest chapter.
Sports keep rolling with our university teams. The UNO Mavericks volleyball squad hits the road for the Cyclone Invitational in Ames this weekend. Today at four, they face off against Saint Louis, with Iowa State up next. The Mavericks, currently two and three, lead the Summit League in hitting percentage, and senior Kali Jurgensmeier is at the top of league stats—a great weekend for fans of local talent.
Turning now to our jobs and real estate beat, local job postings have held steady this week. Employers continue to look for healthcare workers, warehouse staff, and IT professionals. In real estate, median home prices in Douglas County are holding around two hundred ninety thousand dollars, with new listings outpacing last month, especially in neighborhoods near Benson and Millard. Rental market activity also remains brisk, with apartments along West Dodge and Midtown showing the most movement.
Let’s check on the weather before you head out. We’re looking at partly cloudy skies all day and highs near seventy-eight, just a touch of humidity but nothing that should slow down outdoor plans. Pack a jacket for tonight if you’re heading to one of the outdoor events, as temps will dip into the low sixties.
From city hall, the council is set to vote Monday night on final designs for the North Downtown Greenway Project. If approved, work could start as soon as spring, bringing new parks, bike trails, and green spaces along North 14th and Cuming Street. This is expected to play a big role in revitalizing that stretch and improving walkability in the area.
Among our new local businesses, a boutique coffee shop called Heartland Brews opened this week on Leavenworth Street near Midtown Crossing, offering locally roasted blends and partnering with area bakeries. Meanwhile, a long-time favorite, The Book Nook on Maple Street, announced it’ll close in November after thirty years. The owner plans a closing sale and says he’s grateful for the memories with the Omaha community.
Events to note this weekend include the three-day Omaha Jazz Fest kicking off at Turner Park at Midtown Crossing, plus family fun at Zorinsky Lake with the annual Kids Fishing Derby and a Sunday morning 5K benefiting local schools. Tomorrow, the Old Market hosts an outdoor art walk with over fifty local artists showing their work.
On the education front, Westside High’s debate team just brought home top honors from the statewide tournament in Lincoln, and Central High’s girls’ soccer team celebrated a four-to-one win over Bellevue East Thursday night.
Checking on public safety, Omaha police responded to a reported burglary near South 48th and Q streets overnight. One suspect was apprehended; no injuries reported. Police remind everyone to secure vehicles and keep porch lights on. Thankfully, no major accidents or injuries reported in the metro over the last twenty-four hours.
Let’s finish with a feel-good story. Volunteers from Florence and Benson neighborhoods teamed up to repaint benches and clean up the playground at Fontenelle Park yesterday. Kids joined in by planting new flowers with help from local businesses. It’s another reminder of the spirit and pride that keeps Omaha shining.
