This blog will provide a vitural walk to all the stops on the 2005 walking tour published by the Joslyn Castle Neighborhood Association. The brochure was made possible through the work of a CLG(Certified Local Government)Grant administered by our City of Omaha Planning Department and funded by the U.S.Department of the Interior, National Park Service. I also want to thank the many neighborhood volunteers who took up this task of researching and publishing our history.
