Nebraska city nicknamed the "Gateway to the West"

I believe the answer is:

omaha

(Other definitions for omaha that I've seen before include "Nebraska's largest city" , "US 1944 D-Day landing beach" , "US city; D-Day 16" , "- - Beach (WWII)" , "place in Nebraska" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
