Old Market and
Wholesale District The Old Market Historic District is significant to the commercial development of Omaha as the wholesale jobbing area which mushroomed in the 1880’s and continued well into the twentieth century, serving as the distribution center for a variety of goods shipped on the Union Pacific Railroad and its branch lines all the way to the west coast. The district is comprised of former light industrial and warehouse buildings and wholesale jobbing houses. Today the Old Market is a popular entertainment and residential district, housing restaurants, shops and loft apartments. (This property is also listed in the National Register of Historic Places as a historic district.)
