Building description
Prime retail and office spaces in Omaha’s most anticipated mixed-use development
Civic Square represents a significant mixed-use development opportunity in Omaha’s urban landscape. This 9-acre district, constructed on the former Civic Auditorium site, integrates essential services, retail offerings, and community spaces with Creighton University as an anchor tenant and 200,000 SF of proposed premier office space providing built-in customer demographics.
The retail opportunity is strategically positioned within this mixed use environment, where planned residential, office, and hospitality components generate the foot traffic and demographic diversity that retail businesses require for success. These retail spaces accommodate both daily necessities such as grocery services and destination retail experiences, serving the university community while addressing needs of Omaha’s expanding professional population.
The “NEST” concept creates a unique urban environment where collegiate activity, professional work life, and residential living converge in the city center, facilitating daily interaction between students, office workers, and residents. This positioning places tenants within Omaha’s growth trajectory with measurable advantages: consistent pedestrian traffic, varied customer demographics, and location within a strategically planned district.
Creighton University
With over 8,700 students and 2,350 faculty and staff, Creighton University delivers one of the region’s most concentrated consumer markets directly adjacent to Civic Square. The walkable connection creates seamless integration between this top-ranked campus and retail opportunities - establishing Civic Square as the natural hub for the Bluejay community while attracting and retaining top talent to the area.
Whether it’s coffee between classes, post-game celebrations from 14 varsity sports, or convenient shopping needs, Creighton’s community offers retailers a built-in customer base of nearly 11,000 potential visitors. This educated, engaged demographic values quality experiences and provides year round traffic that extends beyond seasonal fluctuations, creating a thriving community destination that benefits both residents and the broader region.
