Summary
A leader in Omaha's growing service economy in the post-World War II period, the Northern Natural Gas Company tapped the Omaha architectural firm Latenser & Sons to construct this impressive modern office building in 1951. In 1958, a fifteen story addition was completed making the Northern Natural Gas building one of Omaha's tallest structures. With an emphasis on horizontal and vertical planes with tinted windows, this building embodies the modern corporate aesthetic of its period of construction.
