The Armour Packing Plant was a division of Armour and Company located at South 29th and Q Streets in South Omaha, Nebraska. The plant opened in 1897 and closed in 1968.[1][2] The plant included several buildings, including a remarkable red brick administrative building, and a large, tall wall which surrounded the facility.[3] It was located on the South Omaha Terminal Railway, and next to the Omaha Stockyards, making Armour one of the "Big Four" packing companies in Omaha.[4][5]

History

Armour Packing Plant in the Fort Worth Stockyards

The Union Stock Yards Company gave Armour $600,000 in land and approximately $750,000 in stock in the Omaha Stockyards to build a packing house. This deal raised the ire of stockholders in the stockyards company, as well as competitors in the meat-packing industry.[6]

The contractors selected to build the plant were Rocheford & Gould, and the first brick was laid on 17 November 1897.[7]

There were a number of large riots and civil unrest that originated or included events at the Armour Packing Plant.[8]
