Summary
Located in south central Lincoln, and developed with 131 single-family residences, the Woodsshire Residential Historic District is a 40-acre subdivision with an innovative design, highly responsive to its topography. Nebraska's first academically trained landscape architect, Ernst Herminghaus, designed Woodsshire's landscape plan, promoted the development of the area, and resided in it for a decade. In addition to Herminghaus's design, many of the district's Period Revival style homes showcase the work of several of Lincoln's leading architects.

About the National Register of Historic Places
The National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) is the country’s official list of historically significant properties. To be eligible for the NRHP a property must generally retain their historic appearance, be at least 50 years old, and have the potential to be documented as historically or architecturally significant at either the local, state, or national level. The National Register of Historic Places is a National Park Service program administered by the Nebraska State Historical Society for the state of Nebraska.
