Summary
The Columbian School is a two-story grammar school building constructed in 1892. It is an excellent example of the Richardsonian Romanesque style of architecture, a style employed for many of the most important civic and commercial buildings constructed in Omaha during its first boom period. Grand scale Romanesque Revival-style buildings patterned after those of H. H. Richardson and his followers symbolized Omaha's transformation from frontier village to city in the late 1880s and early 1890s.
