Omaha’s historic Parks and Boulevards System, designed by landscape architect H.W.S. Cleveland, is a comprehensive, interconnected park system for the city of Omaha. It is part of the legacy left by the leadership of George L. Miller, president of Omaha’s first Board of Park Commissioners in 1889.
A special thank you to Jean and Lee Johnson for giving me their River City History Tour: Omaha’s Parks and Boulevards as done through the Durham Museum, and to Matthew Kalcevich, Director for the City of Omaha Parks & Recreation Department, for speaking with me.
