This issue of Review of Applied Urban Research features "The Changing Distribution of Omaha's Office Space," by Armin K. Ludwig.

The Sanitary Improvement District As A Mechanism For Urban Development, Ralph H. Todd, Sherri Rogers, Kwame P. Annor, Murray Frost, David W. Hinton, Paul S. T. Lee, Armin K. Ludwig

Publications

The history of the Sanitary Improvement District (SID) in Nebraska is closely tied to the history of urban development in the Omaha Metropolitan Area. The end of World War II freed the pent-up demand for new dwelling units in Nebraska as well as in the rest of the nation. Omaha's stock of platted lots was rapidly used up in the late 40's and pressures were great for opening up new areas. To meet the demand, new dwellings began to spring up on the fringes of the City, but altogether too many of these were served only by wells and septic …

This issue of Review of Applied Urban Research features "Net In-Commuter Patterns to the Douglas County Urban Core And to the Omaha CBD."

The work area may be the core urban county in a large metropolitan area or the Central Business District (CBD) of the central city, but in either case such moves have tended to extend the average distance of the journey to work. Such moves have also led to the transfer of money in the form of paychecks …

This issue of Review of Applied Urban Research features "Attitudes Toward the Construction of an Urban Expressway: The North Omaha Case."

T he locating and construction of an urban expressway creates conflicts between the need for new and improved routes of access and the need to protect the environmental, social and economic characteristics of parts of the city itself.

Citizen groups often organize to protest these disruptions and changes …

Theses and Dissertations

This thesis will describe and interpret the development of this Relief Society wheat storage program from its inception in 1876 to 1940 when the program was transferred to the General Church Welfare Committee. Emphasis will be placed on the sisters' attempts to store grain and the problems they encountered. The thesis will also discuss the effects of outside forces on the program and the different ways the sisters used the grain. The final chapter will deal with the relationship between the movement and the history of the Relief Society and its parent organization, the Mormon Church.
