The Home of The Bee Eridm
The memorial to versitility, public spirit fori
ing archi-',
ildingLm!J
to do was,?
In its day the most unique, and
one of the most enduring monuments
of Edward Rosewater, founder of
The Bee, is the Bee building at
Seventeenth and Farnam.
It stands today a memorial to his
versatility, his public spirit, his won
derful foresight and his faith in
Omaha.
In a peculiarly expressive way it
exemplifies the character and per
sonality of the man who was so great
a factor in the upbuilding of the city
and the state of Nebraska. Its mas
sive, rugged exterior, Roman in its
simplicity, so expressive of strength
and grandeur, and yet possessing a
certain beauty of symmetry, more en
during than the ornate structures
which preceded it and many of the
utilitarian designs that followed
makes the structure typical of the
man who created it.
A Dream Achieved.
The Bee building was a dream of
Edward Rosewater in its inception
and became a marvelous reality of
achievement It was the purpose of
its founder to erect on the site of
the old family home, the highest
point in Omaha, a building which
would, for generations be the model
newspaper and office building of
America.
In planning a home for The Bee
he studied every phase and require
ment essential to a structure, , which,
when completed, would stand pre
eminently a monument to his jour
nalistic and business enterprise. He
mastered every detail and when,
months afterward, he submitted his
plan to the architect. S. S. Beeman
of Chicago, then the lead:
tect of massive office buildings
America, all the latter had
io ciome in arcniieciurat- details ;no-j I
personal ideas of Mr. Rosewater. ' S
How ably the founder of the struc-' Lt
ture planned is well illustrated in the
physical advantages of the building )
today. . v-t w S
The first active steps toward 4 the, j
erection of the Bee buildinsr were 1
taken by Mr. Rosewater in Juaf
1887. Work in excavating begin r 7
September of that year, work on IK v
fnnnHatinn atarten a month "
and the building waSj pushed to, a j
Western Outpost
At the time of completion the Beet
building stood as the western out
post of the business district
Omaha and manv shook their heads
at the daring of the'builder in locat-4j
center of activities. But the vision
of Mr. Rosewater, who had
sight to see the trend
growth, was vindicated
years.
The distinguishing feature
Bee building is the impression of
solidity and durability which it gives;
to all beholders. Its broad founda-;
tions, massive pillars and imposing
superstructure have resisted the en
croachments of physical decline and
changing ideals of office - building
architecture and it combines with;
promise of age-old endurance every
apearance of up-to-the-minute .motH
ernity. ' , . ' -: v,
