OneWorld Build-out at Livestock Exchange
This was a critical time both for OneWorld as well as for NuStyle. Prior to its move to the Livestock Exchange, the clinic had been growing and moving as finances and opportunity allowed. The space they occupied prior to their move to this clinic was a two-bay separation from the bulk of a defunct mid-level department store nearby, in South Omaha.
With the entrance to the Livestock Exchange no longer on the second floor, that space became the main lobby area for the new Oneworld clinic. On either side were built out medical offices, with a dental suite on the third floor, South side. Over time the clinic required more and more space until they’d taken over all available first floor space, and even then, were “bursting at the seams”, which led to the creation of the buddy-buildings somewhat soon after the original clinic was built in the Livestock Exchange.
A perusal of the Oneworld web site shows just how the services of this organization have expanded. At one Milagro Dinner, where all of the achievements and supporters of the clinic were feted, the Director of the clinic summarized the state of our health care, implicitly. Not an exact quote, but she said something along these lines:
The organization continues to grow, serving those that would otherwise not have access to health care. While the dream is that we, as a nation, no longer would have need for an organization such as ours, until that happens, we will do all we can to provide the best health care to the least fortunate.
