The Historic Omaha Library, originally built in 1891 by architect Thomas Kimball, is a significant landmark in downtown Omaha, Nebraska. Designed in the Second Renaissance Revival style, the building was designated an Omaha Landmark and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.
Donated by pioneer real estate broker Byron Reed, the library housed his collection of books, manuscripts, and coins before closing in 1977. Renovated into the Omaha Library Plaza, the building stands as a testament to Nebraska's early Second Renaissance Revival architecture.
