Summary

The Dundee/Happy Hollow Historic District was platted as an independent suburb that was later annexed by the City of Omaha. The district as a whole is a notable example of late-nineteenth and early-twentieth century suburban development. Collectively, the district's high style, architect-designed homes along scenic boulevards is an historically significant area.
