My grandfather is William H. Durand. He designed the foot bridge over Dodge street. He is 94 and still living in Omaha. He is a very intresting person and if you want to find out more about him you can search google. Search for William H Durand Omaha and I think you will be very fascianted by what you find. Thank you!

Downtown was fun to visit in the late 60s and early 70s--Beaton Drugs, Kresge dime store, and of course Brandeis. My wife is the great-granddaughter of Brandeis architect John Latenser.
