Angie and Jason Fisher<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Thank you to Angie Fisher for her interview for our Omaha blog. The interview took place at The Farnam, a new Omaha hotel, on 20 May 2021 after the ribbon cutting.<\/p>\n

OmahaNebraska.com: Congratulations on your new hotel!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Angie Fisher: Thank you..we really are so proud and humbled honestly by the support we have gotten and that\u2019s\u00a0 from all places in the city and even out of the city people who are just excited to have something new and fresh and something that I think exemplifies Omaha, so well.<\/p>\n

OmahaNebraska.com: \u00a0I was amazed \u00a0because I got\u00a0 tour [Tour was 4 May]\u00a0 … the \u00a0attention to detail on everything and no room the same! It\u2019s just gorgeous!!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Angie Fisher: Thank you, so much. We \u00a0definitely tried hard to make it interesting, layered, textural, comfortable and just add a lot of \u00a0touches to that really are unique and special.<\/p>\n

For instance, like this paneling. behind me. Did you learn about that?<\/p>\n

OmahaNebraska.com: Yes, but forgive me…I do not remember all the details.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Angie Fisher: It\u2019s recycled sawdust from our projects.. and they pressed into panels and put it up representative of like farm quarter sections.<\/p>\n

OmahaNebraska.com: That part I remember.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Angie Fisher: Yes, so it\u2019s been really a passion project You know. I like to say it\u2019s my hobby t because I am a physician in real life.<\/p>\n

OmahaNebraska.com: Oh, I did not know that.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Angie Fisher: But it\u2019s a pretty big hobby and we really just jumped in with both of our feet honestly because neither of us has any experience with building a hotel or a hospitality project especially something this big and special and you know just to do that and bring it to life and to see it with people enjoying it. It’s so great. We are so grateful.<\/p>\n

OmahaNebraska.com: How long did the project take from the first little inkling?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Angie Fisher: About three years. Initially we did some market research to figure out what to do with this building. The Landmark building is a beautiful tool.<\/p>\n

OmahaNebraska.com: I know and I kept seeing business leave … <\/strong><\/p>\n

Angie Fisher: Exactly.<\/p>\n

OmahaNebraska.com: .<\/strong>.. and leave …<\/strong><\/p>\n

Angie Fisher: Exactly.<\/p>\n

OmahaNebraska.com: … but … I am very happy to be here why aren\u2019t you [other businesses] happy to be here? [Both Little Mountain Web Design and OmahaNebraska.com are located in the Landmark building where the new hotel is located.]<\/strong><\/p>\n

Angie Fisher: So, unfortunately that’s\u00a0 been kinda the Omaha urbran sprawl and we are hoping to bring more attention and more focus down here along with the park and along with the Holland and along with all the other projects that are happening down here to revive interest in downtown Omaha from a business perspective, for people who want to live down here and that kind of thing.<\/p>\n

It’s been really fun but how the project started. We did market research though initially thought we’d be getting into apartments but there wasn’t really a need.<\/p>\n

So we then looked at a boutique hotel and Jason and I love to travel. We love boutique hotels and we love details. And so we got to put all of that into this process and this package with a great design team, a great construction team and that was vital because we certainly could not do something like that on our own. So we are very happy to have such great people such great experience to help us on our way.<\/p>\n

It’s our baby, so we just love being able to want to present this to Omaha and want to present Omaha like this. And so looking forward to having travellers and- to the College World Series, for instance, they get to experience Omaha at a different level I think then what you are used to.<\/p>\n

OmahaNebraska.com: We also have the swim trials coming up.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Angie Fisher: Yes. We have the Golf Senior Open. Just a lot of really great things happening this summer. And now that we are getting out cages and out of our masks.<\/p>\n

OmahaNebraska.com: This [your new hotel] comes at a tremendous time in history of Omaha and the country. You are just poised to where we want to enjoy things.
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

Angie Fisher: We are just ready to take off with the rest of the world. We are so excited. We are here. We are new. Let’s all live life and get out there and have fun and experience this!
