Omaha Quartermaster Depot Historic District, Twenty-second & Woolworth Streets, Omaha, Douglas County, NE

Significance: The Omaha Quartermaster Depot has gained its significance by being associated with, and a part of, the Omaha Quartermaster Depot Historical District (listed as an Historic District by the National Register of Historic Places in 1978). The Quartermaster Depot, historically known as the "Old Corral," played a significant part in late nineteenth and early twentieth century local and regional history, and today remains as a remarkable cohesive example of the changing role played by the military and railroad in the development and "westward expansion" following the Civil War.
