Mutual of Omaha Construction in the Dark

Mutual of Omaha Construction in the Dark

Brad Williams captured this night-time shot of construction going on at the $600 million Mutual of Omaha tower site. Work is progressing on the central core, also known as a shear tower. Work is now underway on the 25th floor of that core, which will contain elevator shafts. Work is also wrapping up on the parking-garage portion of the project. At 677 feet, the 44-story tower will be the tallest in a multi-state region. Though the 800,000 sq. ft. building is not due for completion until 2026, it is already the third-tallest building in Omaha.
