Packer's National Bank Building

1907
Architect: Thomas Kimball
Second Renaissance Revival Style
Designated Omaha Landmark: : September 18, 1984
This Second Renaissance Revival style building was designed by architect Thomas Kimball, considered by many to be Nebraska’s premier architect.
It was built in 1907 for Packer’s National Bank, an organization with strong ties to the Omaha stockyards. Established in 1891 Packer’s National Bank paralleled the growth of South Omaha and its livestock trade.
Many of the bank’s early officers were executives in the meat packing industry. In 1984 the building was renovated for use as offices and apartments.
(This building is also listed in the National Register of Historic Places.) |
