Beta West Tower & Data Center/1200 Landmark Center

This high-profile project in downtown Omaha (completed in 1990 & 1991) was the first project that allowed Husker Glass to truly exhibit all the values on which we pride ourselves: glazing skill, technology, innovation, product quality, scheduling, value engineering and product and service performance.

“Husker Glass always strives to bring the same level of excellence and commitment to every project. They are a respected Subcontractor in the markets we serve and The Weitz Company values our ongoing working relationship and considers them as a preferred construction partner.”

— John Taylor, Senior Vice President, Weitz
