Potter's Field (Omaha)

The Potter's Field Cemetery in Omaha, Nebraska, United States, is located on a 5-acre (20,000 m2) plot of land at 5000 Young Street near the intersections of Young Street and Mormon Bridge Road. Like all potter's fields, it was used to bury poor people or people with no known identity from across the Omaha area. The cemetery was active from 1887 to 1957. History The Potter's Field was used as early as 1887, and over the next seventy years almost 4,000 burials were made. However, there were few markers. People who were buried there were too poor to afford burials in regular cemeteries, and therefore were too poor to afford headstones. Burials were commonly made without markers of any sort. There is speculation that Mormon pioneers from Cutler's Park were buried here in the 1850s, as well. A partial list of the individuals who are buried at Potter's Field and any details is listed in the US GenWeb Archives. It also indicates whether the person's remains were removed or moved from the cemetery. Despite being owned by Douglas County, the cemetery fell into disrepair from the late 1950s through the 1980s. In 1986 a volunteer group rehabilitated Potter's Field, adding a walkway and meditation area, as well as a listing of every burial accounted for in government and the neighboring Forest Lawn Cemetery records. Potter's Field was reconsecrated in September, 1986. Perhaps the most notorious interment in Potter's Field was that of Will Brown, an African American civilian who was lynched in downtown Omaha in 1919. Brown was accused of raping a white woman and was lynched in front of the Douglas County Courthouse. On October 1, 1919 Brown was laid to rest, with the interment log listing only one word next to his name: "Lynched."

Redick Tower

The Redick Tower is an 11-story building located at 1504 Harney Street in Omaha, Nebraska, U.S. It is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. Redick Tower was built in 1930 for Garrett and Agor, Inc. and was designed by Joseph G. McArthur. Since 2011, it has been operated as a hotel known as Hotel Deco. History The Redick Tower was built for Garrett and Agor, Inc., which managed it until the mid-1930s, when it was purchased by the Redick Tower Corporation. In 1943, it was bought by Walter Duda, an Omaha investor, who owned it until 1973, when it was acquired by the Denver-based Parking Corporation of America. It was subsequently operated as a Radisson Hotel, "considered among Omaha's best", and then as the Best Western Redick Plaza Hotel until it closed in 2009. In 1984, the building was listed in the National Register of Historic Places. Its historic significance was attributed to its original multifunctional urban design - combining retail, office and parking space in a single building - and to its being "one of Nebraska's premier examples" of the Art Deco style. In 2010, it was purchased by the White Lotus Group, which opened it in the following year as the Hotel Deco. Design The building was designed in the Art Deco style by an Omaha architect, Joseph G. McArthur. It was named after the Redick family, who had been among Omaha's pioneer settlers, arriving in 1856, and who had owned the land on which the building was constructed. As designed, it housed commercial storefront space on the first floor, indoor parking and garage facilities for up to 500 cars on the lower seven floors, and office space in the tower above the parking levels.

Lewis and Clark Lake

Der Lewis and Clark Lake ist ein Stausee im Grenzgebiet von Nebraska und South Dakota in den Vereinigten Staaten von Amerika. Der Missouri wird auf einer Länge von 40 Kilometern vom Gavins Point Dam aufgestaut, hat eine Fläche von 130 km² und ist bis zu 14 Meter tief. Benannt wurde der Stausee nach den berühmten amerikanischen Entdeckern Meriwether Lewis und William Clark. Der Damm befindet sich in der Nähe von Yankton, South Dakota. Er wurde im Rahmen des Pick–Sloan-Programms ab 1952 vom U.S. Army Corps of Engineers errichtet und wird seit 1957 von diesem betrieben. Der Stausee überflutete Teile der Yankton Reservation und der Santee Sioux Reservation. Um das Bauprojekt durchzusetzen, enteignete der Army Corps die Yankton Sioux widerrechtlich und gegen eine geringe Entschädigungssumme, die nicht einmal ihre Umsiedlungskosten deckte. Jahre später wurden ihnen zusätzliche Entschädigungszahlung zugestanden. Weblinks Lewis and Clark Lake auf der Website des US Army Corps of Engineers (englisch) Einzelnachweise
Lewis and Clark Lake

Lewis and Clark Lake är en 130 kvadratkilometer stor uppdämd sjö i Missourifloden på gränsen mellan de amerikanska delstaterna Nebraska och South Dakota. Den fungerar som vattenreservoar och har en volym på cirka 610 miljoner kubikmeter och ett maximalt vattendjup på 13,7 meter. Sjön vattenfylldes när dämningen Gavins Point Dam var färdig år 1955. Lewis and Clark Lake har fått sitt namn efter upptäckarna Meriwether Lewis och William Clark som genomförde Lewis och Clarks expeditionen i västra USA år 1804-1806. Flera olika indianstammar har bott i området runt Missourifloden, bland andra Ponca, Dakota och Omaha. När Lewis och Clark reste upp längs Missourifloden på deras expedition till Stilla Havet mötte de år 1804 för första gången en Sioux stam. I indianreservatet Santee Sioux Reservation, som ligger längs sjöns sydvästra strand, bor en indianstam som kom hit till området i mitten av 1800-talet. År 1874 bosatte sig en grupp Hutteriter från Österrike på det som idag är Lewis och Clarksjöns norra strand. De har ett ålderdomligt levnadssätt. Lewis and Clark Lake ligger cirka 6 kilometer väster om staden Yankton och cirka 1 300 kilometer uppströms från staden St. Louis, som ligger där Missourifloden mynnar ut i Mississippifloden. Den uppdämda sjön Lake Yankton ligger omedelbart nedströms Gavins Point Dam. Källor

Rock Creek Station

Rock Creek Station was a stagecoach and Pony Express station in southeastern Nebraska, three miles northeast of the present-day village of Endicott. The site is preserved as Rock Creek Station State Historical Park. History Rock Creek Station was established in 1857 by S.C. Glenn along the Oregon Trail and California Trail, along the west bank of Rock Creek. The station was a supply center and campground for emigrants. In March 1859, the property was purchased by David McCanles and his brother, James, who added a toll bridge across Rock Creek, charging each wagon from 10¢ to 50¢ to cross the bridge depending upon their ability to pay. In 1860, McCanles built a cabin and dug a well on the east side of Rock Creek which became known as the East Ranch. In early 1861, McCanles sold the East Ranch to the Russell, Waddell, and Majors firm, which owned and operated the Pony Express, for a cash deposit with the remainder to be paid in installments. The West Ranch continued to be used as an emigrant rest stop and the home of the McCanles family until April 1861, when McCanles sold the West Ranch to freighters Hagenstein and Wolfe and moved his family to another property three miles south of Rock Creek Station. In July 1861, David McCanles stopped by Rock Creek Station to inquire about the status of an overdue installment. An argument ensued, and McCanles was shot and killed by a young James Butler Hickok, who later became known as Wild Bill Hickok. State park In 1980, the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission began development of 350 acres (140 ha) as a state historical park; an adjoining 40-acre (16 ha) tract was developed as a state recreation area. Deep trail ruts can be seen in the park complex. The toll bridge and many of the station's buildings have been reconstructed; other features include a visitor center with exhibits about pioneers along the Oregon trail and Wild Bill Hickok, hiking trails, and a campground.

Saddle Creek Underpass

The Saddle Creek Underpass is located in the Midtown area of Omaha, Nebraska. Designed to carry Saddle Creek Road under Dodge Street (US 6), the underpass was constructed in 1934 by the Works Progress Administration. It was included on the Bridges in Nebraska Multiple Property Submission on June 29, 1992. About The Nebraska Department of Roads Biennial Report of 1933-34 describes the construction of the underpass as featuring "a complete, modern street light system, and interlocking traffic control signal system, two pedestrian subways, and a grade separation of Dodge Street and Saddle Creek Boulevard." Built by the Works Progress Administration, over 1,175 cubic yards (898 m3) of dirt were excavated to lower Saddle Creek Road sufficiently to pass under the overpass. The project was completed in 1934, and was designed to accommodate the westernmost addition to Omaha's boulevard system, which was originally called Saddle Creek Boulevard. Saddle Creek Road still utilizes the underpass today as it sits between the Morton Meadows and Dundee neighborhoods. As of 2004 the Underpass was the only property listed on the National Register in either neighborhood, although each one has submitted applications to be listed as a historic district.

Saunders School

Saunders School, located at 415 North 41st Avenue in the Midtown area of Omaha, Nebraska, United States, was declared a landmark by the City of Omaha in 1985, and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986. About Named for Alvin Saunders, Nebraska's last territorial governor and a member of the Board of Regents of Omaha High School, Saunders School was built in the Romanesque style in 1899. It was designed by prominent Omaha architect John Latenser, Sr. to reflect his interest in neo-classical form and detail. It was the first commission Latenser received among many for Omaha's civic and commercial buildings. The school's roof was torn off and the building was partially destroyed by the Easter Sunday Tornado of 1913. After operating as a school for more than 80 years, the two-story brick building was renovated for use as apartments in the late 1980s. See also History of Omaha References
Scottish Rite Cathedral (Omaha, Nebraska)

The Scottish Rite Cathedral is a Masonic building in Omaha in the state of Nebraska in the Midwestern United States. Begun in 1912 and opened in 1914, it remains in use by the Scottish Rite. The building was designed in the Neoclassical Revival by Omaha architect John Latenser Sr. A native of Liechtenstein, Latenser studied in Stuttgart, Germany before emigrating to the United States in 1879. After working in Indianapolis, Chicago, and Cedar Rapids, Iowa, he moved to Omaha in 1887. His early work in Nebraska and Iowa consisted largely of designing cottages; but his reputation grew, and he was eventually appointed a Superintendent of Public Buildings during the administration of President William McKinley. His two sons joined his firm, which became John Latenser & Sons. The firm's work pervaded Omaha: "[i]n the 1930s, 89 of 98 blocks in Downtown Omaha contained at least one building designed by John Latenser and Son". Latenser designed buildings in a variety of revival styles. For the Scottish Rite Temple, he turned to the principles of classical Greek design, using Ionic columns, which are significant in Masonic symbolism. The building is described as "the pinnacle of [Latenser's] works in the Neoclassical Revival style". In 2011, the building was listed in the National Register of Historic Places. Cited in its nomination to the Register were both its architectural significance and the prominence of Freemasonry in Omaha's business and governmental leadership in course of the building's history.
