Upon completion of the Nebraska State Capitol, in their final report to the Nebraska State Legislature on January 1, Galen Hadley Speaker of the Legislature 1935, the Nebraska Capitol Commission stated, Vice-Chairman “ It is difficult for Nebraska to realize what it has done, but the people of your nation know, and they look to you for careful preservation of what has become Michael Heavican a jewel among Historic Monuments.” Chief Justice Supreme Court Vice-Chairman Nebraska achieved and preserves its monumental Capitol through the hard work and dedication of architects. Frank Lloyd Wright, perhaps the Kim Wilson best known architect in America, described architecture as the mother art, Dean “Without architecture of our own we have no soul of our own civilization.” College of Architecture, UNL The Nebraska State Capitol provides an architectural soul for Nebraska. Nebraska’s first two state capitols were designed by Chicago architects Michael Smith following the standards of the time: columns, pediments, domes. They were Executive Director & CEO designed to be reminiscent of the nation’s Capitol. It was leading Omaha Nebraska State Historical Society architect, Thomas R. Kimball, FAIA, and president of the American Institute Bryce Neidig of Architects, who set the stage for Nebraska to have in Wright’s words “an Congressional District 1 architecture of our own”. As architectural advisor to the Nebraska Capitol Commission, Kimball wrote the program statement for the competition Stan Meradith which allowed New York architect Bertram Grosvenor Goodhue to exercise Congressional District 2 all his talents and create the nation’s first truly vernacular statehouse. The Nebraska State Capitol truly represents Nebraska, its landscape and its Jim Cudaback people. Congressional District 3 The opening words of Kimball’s competition statement emphasize the importance of architecture and architects. Robert C. Ripley Administrator “The Capitol of a State is the outward sign of the character of its people. Their Office of the Capitol Commission respect for its traditions and history, their belief in its importance and worth, and their love of its fair name; all find expression in its Capitol. Of Nebraska highway Secretary of progress, provider of man’s necessities, battle-ground of freedom, distributor of learning, home of the volunteer let the new Capitol be a symbol. Rome’s greatest basilica is not the only legacy left by the architects of St. Peter’s. Michelangelo’s dome was chosen, but to the designs of San Gallo, Bramante, and other unsuccessful competitors, the world owes many of its greatest monuments! Beside a noble Capitol for Nebraska, may not this competition yield to Architecture a wider heritage?” Architect Bertram Goodhue used the opportunity to design something very new and original, a landmark for all Nebraska. Thematic consultant Hartley Burr Alexander explained the goal of Goodhue’s design, that everyone who entered the Capitol would feel blessed for having passed through. Fine architecture has the ability to achieve that goal. 1 T HE C API T OL S OWER | T HE N EWSLE tt ER OF T HE C API T OL C OMMISSIO N | A UGUS T 2 0 1 5 The People of the OCC Office of the Capitol Experience and Service Commission OCC at Work ADMINISTRATION Bob Ripley, Administrator Capitol Administrator Tom Kaspar, Preservation Architect Matt Hansen, Preservation Architect Mark Tonjes, Capitol Manager obert C.

  • State Supreme Court Upholds Dismissal of Water Suit
    STATE SUPREME COURT UPHOLDS DISMISSAL OF WATER SUIT AGAINST DNR BY RUSS PANKONIN THE IMPERIAL REPUBLICAN In an opinion released Friday, March 10, the Nebraska Supreme Court upheld the district court dismissal of two water suits brought against the Nebraska Department of Natural Resources (DNR). Water users in the Frenchman Cambridge Irrigation District (FCID) lost their appeal of the dismissal of the suits by Furnas County District Court Judge James E. Doyle IV in May 2016. The suits were filed by four water users in the FCID as a class action suit—one for 2013 and one for 2014. The complaints claimed the surface water users in the district were harmed when DNR issued closing notices on river flows for compact compliance purposes in 2013 and 2014. In their appeal, they contended their water rights were superior to those of the Republican River Basin Compact. They also added that DNR’s failure to regulate groundwater depleted available stream flow, which represented a “taking” of water. Compact counts as federal law Writing for the court, Chief Justice Michael Heavican said the surface water rights do not supersede the Compact. “We conclude that the appropriators’ rights to use the water are subject to the Compact and are thus not a compensable property interest when the right to use is limited to ensure Nebraska’s compliance under the Compact,” Heavican wrote. He continued, “The U.S. Supreme Court held that the Compact, having received Congress’s blessing, counts as federal law. “As federal law, the allocations set forth under the Compact are the supreme law in Nebraska and the DNR must ensure Nebraska remains within its allocation under the Compact.

  • Casa Del Prado in Balboa Park
    Chapter 19 HISTORY OF THE CASA DEL PRADO IN BALBOA PARK Of buildings remaining from the 1915 Panama-California Exposition, exhibit buildings north of El Prado in the agricultural section survived for many years. They were eventually absorbed by the San Diego Zoo. Buildings south of El Prado were gone by 1933, except for the New Mexico and Kansas Buildings. These survive today as the Balboa Park Club and the House of Italy. This left intact the Spanish-Colonial complex along El Prado, the main east-west avenue that separated north from south sections The Sacramento Valley Building, at the head of the Plaza de Panama in the approximate center of El Prado, was demolished in 1923 to make way for the Fine Arts Gallery. The Southern California Counties Building burned down in 1925. The San Joaquin Valley and the Kern-Tulare Counties Building, on the promenade south of the Plaza de Panama, were torn down in 1933. When the Science and Education and Home Economy buildings were razed in 1962, the only 1915 Exposition buildings on El Prado were the California Building and its annexes, the House of Charm, the House of Hospitality, the Botanical Building, the Electric Building, and the Food and Beverage Building. This paper will describe the ups and downs of the 1915 Varied Industries and Food Products Building (1935 Food and Beverage Building), today the Casa del Prado. When first conceived the Varied Industries and Food Products Building was called the Agriculture and Horticulture Building. The name was changed to conform to exhibits inside the building.

  • Inspired by Mexico: Architect Bertram Goodhue Introduces Spanish Colonial Revival Into Balboa Park
    Inspired by Mexico: Architect Bertram Goodhue Introduces Spanish Colonial Revival into Balboa Park By Iris H.W. Engstrand G. Aubrey Davidson’s laudatory address to an excited crowd attending the opening of the Panama-California Exposition on January 1, 1915, gave no inkling that the Spanish Colonial architectural legacy that is so familiar to San Diegans today was ever in doubt. The buildings of this exposition have not been thrown up with the careless unconcern that characterizes a transient pleasure resort. They are part of the surroundings, with the aspect of permanence and far-seeing design...Here is pictured this happy combination of splendid temples, the story of the friars, the thrilling tale of the pioneers, the orderly conquest of commerce, coupled with the hopes of an El Dorado where life 1 can expand in this fragrant land of opportunity. G Aubrey Davidson, ca. 1915. ©SDHC #UT: 9112.1. As early as 1909, Davidson, then president of the Chamber of Commerce, had suggested that San Diego hold an exposition in 1915 to celebrate the opening of the Panama Canal. When City Park was selected as the site in 1910, it seemed appropriate to rename the park for Spanish explorer Vasco Nuñez de Balboa, who had discovered the Pacific Ocean and claimed the Iris H. W.

  • The Making of the Panama-California Exposition, 1909-1915 by Richard W
    The Journal of San Diego History SAN DIEGO HISTORICAL SOCIETY QUARTERLY Winter 1990, Volume 36, Number 1 Thomas L. Scharf, Editor The Making of the Panama-California Exposition, 1909-1915 by Richard W. Amero Researcher and Writer on the history of Balboa Park Images from this article On July 9, 1901, G. Aubrey Davidson, founder of the Southern Trust and Commerce Bank and Commerce Bank and president of the San Diego Chamber of Commerce, said San Diego should stage an exposition in 1915 to celebrate the completion of the Panama Canal. He told his fellow Chamber of Commerce members that San Diego would be the first American port of call north of the Panama Canal on the Pacific Coast. An exposition would call attention to the city and bolster an economy still shaky from the Wall Street panic of 1907. The Chamber of Commerce authorized Davidson to appoint a committee to look into his idea.1 Because the idea began with him, Davidson is called "the father of the exposition."2 On September 3, 1909, a special Chamber of Commerce committee formed the Panama- California Exposition Company and sent articles of incorporation to the Secretary of State in Sacramento.3 In 1910 San Diego had a population of 39,578, San Diego County 61,665, Los Angeles 319,198 and San Francisco 416,912. San Diego's meager population, the smallest of any city ever to attempt holding an international exposition, testifies to the city's extraordinary pluck and vitality.4 The Board of Directors of the Panama-California Exposition Company, on September 10, 1909, elected Ulysses S.
