The Hills We Share explores the history of Southside Terrace, Jetter’s Depot, and South Omaha through historic documents, photographs, and artifacts. The exhibit features original 1939 architectural drawings of Southside Terrace on trace paper, correspondence from the Housing Authority, newspaper clippings from the 1930s and 1940s, and historic photos courtesy of The Durham Museum. Together, these materials offer a glimpse into the people, places, and decisions that shaped the neighborhood—and invite us to reflect on the connections between South Omaha’s past and future.
