Gene Leahy Mall at The RiverFront

This 10-acre park situated on the Missouri River in the heart of Omaha is the perfect place to relax and play.

At the heart of Downtown Omaha is the Gene Leahy Mall at the Riverfront, a place to walk, hang out with friends, let the little ones run free, and attend events like concerts and art shows. This park, once known as Central Park Mall, was revamped and expanded in 2019, offering patrons more space to enjoy the urban-yet-naturally beautiful surroundings. This park is set along the Missouri River and has plenty of green spaces, pathways to walk, play areas, and artistic sculptures throughout.

The Gene Leahy Mall has a number of different areas such as an arches playground, two massive slides that adults and kids alike can have a blast on, peaceful fountains and ponds, an amphitheater, a dog park, and vast fields of grass for playing and relaxing on. During those busy days when you’re out and about exploring the city, this park is a convenient and wonderful place to stop to unwind, meet with some friends, talk a nice walk, or have a picnic. Gene Leahy Mall at the Riverfront provides a refreshing year-round escape and an ideal space for leisure in the heart of Omaha.
