The Omaha Branch is the oldest of the three Tenth District branch offices, employing a staff of approximately 65 employees. The Omaha Branch officially opened its doors to serve financial institutions in Nebraska (and a portion of Western Iowa) on September 4, 1917. The Bank was initially located in the old First National Bank building at 1219 Farnam, before moving in 1925 to 17th and Dodge. In February 1986, construction was complete on our existing building, which allows for additional vault space as well as a secure and efficient docking area for receiving shipments of cash.

Tours of the Omaha Branch to be discontinued after May 30, 2008.
