The E R Danner neighborhood was named after a Nebraska State Senator
The area that's now E R Danner was originally “Kountze Place,” a neighborhood that was developed in the 1880s as an upscale streetcar suburb. It was home to the wildly popular 1898 Trans-Mississippi Exposition and the 1898 Greater America Exposition. Many historic homes, schools and churches were built during this time, and a few still stand today. In 1970, the neighborhood was renamed “E R Danner” after the well-respected Omaha native and nationally regarded African-American Nebraska State Senator who dedicated his life to social change. “With its unique history and its great location near Carter Lake, E R Danner has been a consistently popular place to live,” says Tina Sempeck, Realtor with eXp Realty. E R Danner is sought after by those looking to live close to downtown Omaha in a classic turn-of-the-20th-century home.
