About this map

Omaha expansion and the suburban landscape of eastern Nebraska are documented in this detailed study of the Douglas and Sarpy county line. The terrain is defined by the managed waters of Zorinsky Lake and Wehrspann Lake, which serve as focal points for residential development in communities like Gretna and Millard. Traces of the region's earlier agricultural identity remain visible through several small burial grounds, including Mt Auburn Cem and the Pennsylvania Cem.

The hydrological network is dominated by the W Papillion Cr and S Papillion Cr systems, which have been shaped by civil engineering projects such as the Wiebe Reservoir and Papillion Cr Reservoir D-38. This network of creeks and reservoirs provides a structural backbone for the rapidly infilling residential blocks between Chalco and Lane. Major transit corridors like Highway 370 and Pacific St illustrate the modern connectivity required for this growing metropolitan periphery.
