My Omaha Obsession takes the reader on an idiosyncratic tour through some of Omaha’s neighborhoods, buildings, architecture, and people—celebrating the city’s unusual and overlooked history
"The City of Omaha Certified Local Government (Omaha CLG), in cooperation with the Nebraska State Historical Society (NSHS), contracted with Mead & Hunt Inc. (Mead & Hunt) to conduct a Nebraska Historic Resources Survey and Inventory (NeHRSI) in the Hanscom neighborhood of Omaha. Mead & Hunt completed the survey and prepared this report between January and May 2011. The survey area contains approximately 1,146 properties. Generally, the survey area is bounded by I-480, 30th Street, 31st Street, and 32nd Street on the east; I-80 on the south; Center Street and Ed Creighton Avenue on the north; and the former Omaha Belt Line Railroad corridor on the west, roughly corresponding to 34th Street and 37th Street. The survey area generally consists of late nineteenth and early twentieth century residential and institutional resources. A majority of the survey area is residential buildings, mostly single-family homes . . . . The reconnaissance-level survey identified eight individual properties as good candidates for National Register or Omaha Landmark designation" (page iii).
A unique panoramic survey of ethnic groups throughout the United States that explores the diverse communities in every region, state, and big city. Race, ethnicity, and immigrants' lives and identity: these are all key topics that Americans need to study in order to fully understand U.S. culture, society, politics, economics, and history. Learning about "place" through our own historical and contemporary neighborhoods is an ideal way to better grasp the important role of race and ethnicity in the United States. This reference work comprehensively covers both historical and contemporary ethnic and immigrant neighborhoods through A–Z entries that explore the places and people in every major U.S. region and neighborhood. America's Changing Neighborhoods: An Exploration of Diversity uniquely combines the history of ethnic groups with the history of communities, offering an interdisciplinary examination of the nation's makeup. It gives readers perspective and insight into ethnicity and race based on the geography of enclaves across the nation, in regions and in specific cities or localized areas within a city. Among the entries are nearly 200 "neighborhood biographies" that provide histories of local communities and their ethnic groups. Images, sidebars, cross-references at the end of each entry, and cross-indexing of entries serve readers conducting preliminary as well as in-depth research. The book's state-by-state entries also offer population data, and an appendix of ancestry statistics from the U.S. Census Bureau details ethnic and racial diversity.
