Packer's National Bank Building

Packer's National Bank Building in South Omaha is a ten-story structure showing Second Renaissance Revival style with Italian influences throughout its design. The building now contains offices and residential apartments after major renovations, though its original exterior walls remain intact.

The building opened in 1891 and grew as the Omaha Stockyards expanded, both serving the region's meat packing industry. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1985, years after closing its banking operations in 1979.

The building reflects how important banking was to the meat packing industry in South Omaha during its peak years. You can see from its grand design and location why business leaders in the field chose to work here.

The structure sits in South Omaha and is accessible to view from the street, where visitors can see its exterior architecture and period details. Since the building houses private offices and apartments, the interior is not open to public tours.

Architect Thomas Rogers Kimball designed this building, making it a significant example of Italian Renaissance style in the region. Renovations in the 1980s preserved the historic structure while adapting it for modern office and residential use.
