About Old Market

The Old Market is Omaha's historic arts and entertainment district, a few blocks of former warehouses and commercial buildings from the late 1800s and early 1900s. You walk brick streets under covered sidewalks, past galleries, boutiques and antique stores, with horse-drawn carriages and street performers along the way. More than 45 restaurants and bars fill the old buildings. The district was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.
