The residence of Thomas Rogers Kimball, located at 2450 St. Mary's Avenue in Omaha, Nebraska, can be seen from a distance in this black and white lantern slide. The house is a three-story brick structure and a brick wall surrounding its yard. Other houses can be seen down the street from the Kimball house. Snow covers the yards as well as the street in front of the houses, and there are many trees with bare branches.
