Tons of charm. One of Omaha's oldest neighborhoods. It has restaurants, coffee, a killer breakfast spot, Classic French Cuisine, Italian Cuisine, and more. It is also home to Omaha's version of Central Park. It's big, it's beautiful, it's in the middle of the city. Great spot for a walk with family and pups or a brisk run.

In the simplest terms, the Luminarium is a science center. But, it’s a bit more creative and high tech than science centers you may be familiar with. It’s inspired by the Exploratorium in San Francisco, which has been described to me as a “children’s museum meets science center,” if you need a frame of reference.
