Omaha's Old Market air quality reflects the historic Passageway entertainment and arts district, with vehicle traffic on the surrounding Howard Street corridor and the concentrated restaurant and entertainment character contributing local sources. The Missouri River provides limited ventilation, while the neighbourhood's walkable cobblestone character and the flat Midwest terrain generally maintain moderate Omaha metropolitan readings throughout most of the year.
