Mutual of Omaha groundbreaking marks new era of downtown Omaha

It took two years to get to this day. "It's nice to get to this point where we are actually building and not just thinking about what we are going to build," said Mutual of Omaha CEO James Blackledge. Mutual of Omaha is moving its headquarters downtown and leaving midtown. It’s a move Blackledge said initially worried him. "We have made a lot of investment in Midtown crossing and the neighborhood has really benefited from that, and so we really want to see, our current buildings be re-developed," said Blackledge.
