Originally conceived in the 1970s, the Gene Leahy Mall was named after Omaha Mayor Eugene A. Leahy, and is regarded as being a major impetus for the redevelopment of downtown into a thriving commercial, residential and cultural center in Omaha. In 2005 a major redevelopment process began focused on redesigning The Mall and several areas surrounding the Old Market. In July 2022, the redevelopment of The Mall was completed featuring a new concert venue pavilion, open lawn area, and redesigned waterfront walkway while retaining the iconic metal slides. See also
