This is a collection of maps showing the growth of Omaha from its early Missouri River crossing days to the complex metropolitan it is today. All maps may have different origins, but here I am collecting best online depiction of the maps.

1968

This is a vintage map drawn by A. Ruger and restored by Ted’s Vintage Art. You can zoom and pan around a larger version of the map.

North is toward the right side. The longest east-west street that points to top-left is Farnam Street. The railroad bridge (which you don’t see on the map) was completed in 1872, the First Intercontinental Railroad itself launched in 1869.
