Mason School

Mason School is located at 1012 South 24th Street in south Omaha, Nebraska, United States. Designed in the Richardson Romanesque style by the architectural firm of Mendelssohn, Fisher and Lawrie, the school was built in 1888 by the brick manufacturing and construction firm of Hadden, Rocheford & Gould. The school closed in the late 1970s and was converted into apartments. It was designated an Omaha Landmark in 1986 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places that same year. About Mason School is a two-story brick building named in honor of Charles Mason, a Nebraska Supreme Court Justice in the early years of the state. When the school was built in 1888, it was located on the western fringe of Omaha on an unpaved South 24th Street. At the time it was opened, it was the largest elementary school in Omaha, with sixteen classrooms. The first principal was Jennie McKoons, with a staff of five teachers. When it first opened the school had 326 students; however, within a few years it expanded so rapidly that three wooden additions had to be constructed to accommodate the student body. They were replaced in 1936 with a brick addition. In 1989 the building was renovated and turned into apartments. Industrialist and philanthropist Peter Kiewit was among the school's notable students.

Mormon Pioneer Cemetery

The Mormon Pioneer Cemetery is located at 3301 State Street in the present-day Florence neighborhood at the north end of Omaha, Nebraska. The Cemetery is the burial site of hundreds of Mormon pioneers who lived in Winter Quarters, a temporary settlement that lasted from 1846 to 1848 as the settlers moved to Salt Lake City, Utah. It was designated a landmark by the City of Omaha in 1990. History Many of the Mormon pioneers heading west died during their temporary encampment at Winter Quarters between 1846 and 1848. Records of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) indicate that 359 Mormon pioneers were buried at the site. Remnants of three of the graves are visible today, uncovered during the erection of a commemorative monument in 1936. The monument, a bronze statue by Salt Lake City artist Avard Fairbanks, depicts parents who have committed the body of an infant to the grave. The graves of a number of Florence residents are also in the cemetery, which the local community began to use several years after the Mormons left. The area had been used by Native American burial mounds prior to the pioneers. In 1935, the city of Omaha began leasing the cemetery to the LDS Church, with the agreement that the church would landscape and maintain the property. Initially, some community members were opposed to the lease, worried that the history of the Mormon-period usage of the cemetery would overshadow that of the usage by Florence's settlers. Just prior to leasing the property to the church, the city had restricted new burials only to those who had a spouse already buried in the cemetery. With permission from LDS Church leaders, the final burial in the cemetery took place during 1953, when a woman was buried next to her husband (he having been interred there in 1913). In 1999, after leasing the property for over 60 years, the church purchased the cemetery from the city for $1. Soon after the purchase, the church announced construction of a temple on land just south of the Mormon Pioneer-era section of the cemetery. As part of the construction, at least five graves were relocated to other areas of the cemetery to make way for the temple. Location and features The cemetery is adjacent to the Winter Quarters Nebraska Temple, near the Mormon Trail Center at Winter Quarters. Two figures stand at the cemetery entrance: one represents sorrow, while the other represents hope. The names of the dead who are buried here and at Cutler's Park Cemetery are recorded on a Roll of Honor.

The Mutual of Omaha Building is a 285-foot (87 m), 14-story high-rise building in Midtown Omaha, Nebraska, United States. Built in 1940, the building was expanded in the 1940s, 1950s, and had a tower addition completed in 1970. It is currently the sixth tallest building in Omaha. The building houses the headquarters of Mutual of Omaha Insurance Company, and is the largest building in Mutual of Omaha's Midtown Crossing development.

A tower addition was announced in the late 1960s. The addition was topped-out in April 1969. The tower addition was completed and opened in 1970. In January 1978, a $10 million three-story dome was announced to be built directly North of the building. The dome would be 15 feet (4.6 m) tall and would span 90 feet (27 m) across. Mutual of Omaha built the facility underground because the lack of exterior construction would save $5 million. The dome officially opened in November 1979. In 1989, along with Woodmen Tower, the building was used to help restore the population of Peregrine falcons. In 2006, it was announced that Mutual of Omaha would be developing Midtown Crossing at Turner Park directly East of their headquarters. The mixed-use development officially opened in May 2010. In 2008, the front of the building was covered with a 14-story banner promoting the Mutual of Omaha Swimvitational. In 2009, during the Centennial celebration for Mutual of Omaha, the building was covered in panels showing a tiger. Additionally, leaves were projected onto the sides of the building. In 2017, Mutual of Omaha announced plans to build a new headquarters in Midtown Omaha. These plans were later put on pause in 2019. In 2020, Mutual of Omaha announced that the Indian Chief sign on top of the building would be removed. It was replaced by an African Lion. In 2022, Mutual of Omaha revised its headquarters plans and announced that it would build a new headquarters in Downtown Omaha.

Nebraska College of Technical Agriculture

The Nebraska College of Technical Agriculture (UNL–NCTA) is a public technical college in Curtis, Nebraska. It is part of the University of Nebraska system and began operations in 1965. History The Nebraska College of Technical Agriculture was preceded by the Nebraska School of Agriculture, which was established in 1895 as a part of the University of Nebraska system. In 1911, the Nebraska Legislature passed a bill to re-establish it as a boarding school for high school students. Curtis was selected as the site for the new school, over 11 other applicants in the state. The main building, now known as Agricultural Hall, was completed in 1913, and the school officially opened that same year. The school underwent major expansions between 1928 and 1942. Expansions included new dorms, grain elevators, and heating plants. The college also rebranded to the University of Nebraska School of Agriculture in 1946. However, by the late 1950s, enrollment fell, mainly due to how high schools were introducing their own technical classes. In 1965, the State Legislature passed a bill to replace the school with a new post-secondary school. The college opened as the University of Nebraska Technical School of Agriculture at Curtis, and the previous school was dissolved in 1968. In 1985, during the 1980s farm crisis, the State Legislature announced plans to close the college. The college was intended to close in 1988. In 1987, then-governor Kay A. Orr vetoed the financial appropriation necessary to keep the college open. However, after visiting the campus, she was able to allocate enough money to allow the school to stay open until at least two more years. In 1989, the college rebranded to the Nebraska College of Technical Agriculture. By 1994, the college went on a financial upswing. Academics The Nebraska College of Technical Agriculture is a public technical college. As of 2025, the college has 220 students. The college has six Fields of Study. Students at the college may seek A.A.S. degree, A.S. degrees, or certificates in agribusiness management, agriculture production systems or veterinary technology. Campus and athletics NCTA and its earlier institutions have continually operated with business offices and the administration located in the first building on campus, Agriculture Hall at 404 East 7th Street, Curtis. NCTA is not a member of any athletic conference or association but fields a limited number of mixed-gender teams in dog, horse, and shooting sports. Notes References External links Official website
Nebraska Correctional Center for Women

The Nebraska Correctional Center for Women (NCCW) is a state correctional facility for the Nebraska Department of Correctional Services. Located in Baker Precinct, York County, Nebraska, just west of York, it is the only secure state facility to house adult women. Created by an act of the Nebraska State Legislature establishing the "State Reformatory for Women." The original facility opened in May 1920 and consisted of a two-story house that was used as an inmate and staff residence. The facility was a working dairy farm. The inmates assisted with the livestock. The current institution consists of 11 buildings on 27 acres (110,000 m2) of land, secured by two security fences. NCCW houses all security classification levels of female inmates including those in its own Diagnostic and Evaluation Center (D&E) (All male new commitments are taken to the Nebraska Diagnostic and Evaluation Center located in Lincoln). The NCCW D&E houses all new commitments. The average stay of a new commitment in the NCCW D&E is 30 days. This allows the inmate time to adjust to the institution and to learn about the institution's programs, rules, and regulations. During the evaluation period staff develop a personalized classification plan for the inmate. NCCW has been accredited by the American Correctional Association since 1981. Security Levels: NCCW houses all classifications levels of female inmates including new commitments, court-ordered evaluators, and safe-keepers from county facilities.
