Summary
Completed in 1889, the Nebraska City post office building was designed in 1886 under the direction of W. E. Bell, supervising architect for the U.S. Treasury. The two-story brick structure combines elements of the Chateauesque and Romanesque Revival styles to produce an impressive example of late nineteenth century governmental architecture. The building has been rehabilitated for use as a banking facility.
