Mutual of Omaha’s Future Headquarters
Construction is nearing the top of Mutual of Omaha’s future headquarters building at 14th & Farnam Street downtown. The shear-tower core has topped out, but the building will still get a little taller when the outside, parapet roof wall is added. The steel frame will be completed before the end of the year. At that time, most of the exterior panels will also be in place.
Though it won’t be fully completed until late 2026, the 44-story tower is already the tallest building in Nebraska and the bordering states of Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, South Dakota and Wyoming. The final height will be 677 feet, while the final size will be 800,000 sq. ft.
