The comforting and spicy aromas of an old-world Omaha icon will waft through the air once again this year at a renovated Sons of Italy Hall. Damaged by a two-alarm fire on Jan. 13, the hall is scheduled to reopen by Dec. 31.
“It’s going to be a beautiful structure,” said Dr. Tom Pruse, president of the organization’s state lodge. “It will have great eye appeal from the street.” The board of the lodge voted Tuesday night to award the contract to Antoniak Construction Inc. for an estimated $670,000.
