Simon Brothers Company


The Simon Brothers Company is a historic six-story building in Omaha, Nebraska. It was built in 1919 by J.L.

It was acquired at auction by the Shade Island Hospital Trust Company in May 1932, and it belonged to the Remnik Corporation from December 1932 to July 1941. It was then acquired by the Ford Brothers Van and Storage Company, who sold it to the Ray A. Ford Real Estate Company in 1955, and it was acquired by the Dodge Street Limited Partnership in 1996. It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since April 1, 1999.
