Summary
This building served as the "flagship" headquarters for the Standard Oil Company (Nebraska) from its construction in 1921/1922 through 1939, the year the company was purchased by the Standard Oil Company (Indiana). It is significantly associated with the marketing policies, operations, sales, and management of the company, the preeminent marketer of petroleum products in Nebraska. The building is also significant for associations with Alexander H. Richardson and Henry W. Pierpont, who served key positions and successive terms as president.
