The City of Omaha will invest $54 million at Tranquility Park in northwest Omaha to create a premier youth multi-sport complex and tournament facility. New hotels, restaurants and retail are also planned along North 120th Street between Maple and Fort streets. Plans for Tranquility include 13-16 synthetic turf multi-purpose flat fields and 8-11 synthetic turf baseball/softball fields, improved parking and concessions.
Projections show that the new facility will give Omaha the opportunity to attract at least 20 new regional and national youth sporting events worth $78 million in visitor spending each year. Construction will begin with the soccer fields in 2024; baseball and softball improvements will begin in 2026. Completion is planned for 2027.
