About this map

Offutt Air Force Base anchor the southern edge of this Missouri River corridor, where the urban expansion of Omaha and Bellevue meets the industrial and military landscape of the mid-1990s. The map captures the dense network of ethnic and parochial institutions in South Omaha, including St Bridgets Sch, St Stanislaus Sch, and St Mary Magdalene Sch, reflecting the deep-rooted community history of the stockyards district. Along the Missouri River, the transition from the manicured grounds of Riverside Park to the industrial infrastructure near Council Bluffs is evident.

Further south, the landscape shifts toward the drainage of Big Papillion Creek and Papillion Creek. Genealogy-rich features like Graceland Park Cem and the Beth Hamedrash Hagodel Cem are clearly delineated near Harrison Heights Park. The presence of the Union Pacific rail lines and the Old Railroad Grade near Gilmore highlights the enduring transportation patterns that shaped the growth of Sarpy and Douglas counties.
