Clarity and Greenslate are redeveloping the Blackstone Hotel into a high end boutique hotel featuring 204 rooms, a rooftop cocktail bar, restaurant space and a 3 story addition on the surface parking west of the building featuring a pool and other hotel amenities.

Mutual HQ
Mutual of Omaha is currently in the middle of a year long process in assessing where their next headquarters building will be built. They currently occupy about 800,000 SF of space in their main building just west of Midtown Crossing. We would assume something of equal or a little bigger to account for more efficient office layout, while also thinking of future growth. From a speculation standpoint, they will do one of the following:
- Build on their existing parking lots to the west of the current building. (logistical nightmare though)
- Build a massive urban campus on lots their real estate development arm has been gobbling up to the east of Midtown Crossing, more on that below.
- There is a large area of land occupied by Physicians Mutual that they theoretical could build at, but it doesn’t seem all that likely.
Turner Park East Master Plan
Now this is one of the vaguest plans, because like above, we do not know if Mutual of Omaha will build in this area or not. Leaning heavily toward office space (at least for now).
Interesting massing concepts in here.
First phase (150,000 SF office building, a 98 room hotel, a 118 unit apartment building, 400 space garage) – this is still all in the proposed stage, nothing has moved since this article came out.
With a boost from City of Omaha, Turner Park East development moves forward near Midtown Crossing

First phase is colored, while the rest is orange.
