'Leaders of Union Pacific Railroad did not want a typical office building for their new headquarters. Instead, they envisioned a progressive work environment that would tell the world that their 140-year-old company was boldly moving into the 21st Century. The company also desired to consolidate and interconnect scattered workgroups into an attractive, light-filled space for over 4,000 employees. The challenge to the design team was to create a space attractive to potential employees, motivational to the current staff, cost effective and able to accommodate future organizational change.

Union Pacific Center fulfills this vision. Occupying a full block in the heart of downtown Omaha, the 19-story, $260 million headquarters boasts 1.3 million square feet of inviting and flexible space. And with plenty of natural lighting, a conference and learning center, 600-seat dining room, fitness center, data center, retail space, and one of the nation’s largest video screens, Union Pacific’s new headquarters provides a productive and high-quality work environment for its employees. ...'
