Celebrating the Traditions that Bring South Omaha Together
Plaza de la Raza is a transformative public space designed to celebrate culture, strengthen neighborhood vitality, and create a lasting gathering place along the historic 24th Street corridor.
Once a parking lot, the site is being reimagined into a vibrant plaza featuring an amphitheater, open lawn, shaded family areas, and signature public art — all thoughtfully designed to serve residents, businesses, and visitors alike.
Plaza de la Raza represents a major investment in community connection, economic energy, and long-term civic pride.
WHAT’S NEXT
Stay Informed
As Plaza de la Raza moves into the next phase, we’re committed to keeping the community informed every step of the way.
We encourage residents, businesses, and visitors to stay connected and check back regularly for important updates as the project progresses.
This initiative represents a major investment in community connection, made possible through funding from the Nebraska Department of Economic Development, the City of Omaha, Douglas County, and private philanthropy, and project managed by Canopy South.
