This black and white photograph shows a dirt road in Elmwood Park, located at 802 South 60th Street in Omaha, Nebraska. A man, a woman, and a child are riding in a Velie automobile on the road. The man is wearing large black driving gloves and steering the car. The woman is holding the child on her lap. The two of them are dressed in white. Trees line both sides of the road.
Elmwood Park was established in 1890 with land donated by Lyman Richardson and other Omaha citizens. The City of Omaha added more property, and by 1895 the park covered 210 acres. Source: Spencer, Jeffrey. Historic Photos of Omaha. Nashville: Turner Publishing, 2007, p. 118.
