Notes
  • Significance: The Niobrara Valley Bank, organized in the early 1880s was Niobrara's first banking institution. It served the community for more than forty years before closing its doors in the mid 1920s. The bank occupied the first floor. The second floor of the building is occupied by Masonic Lodge No. 87, one of the oldest lodges in Nebraska, for many years before buying the first floor in 1959. The building is also significant for its vernacular interpretation of Richardson Romanesque architecture. The Palen Block is significant for its association with Henry Dean Palen, a well known citizen who was active in community affairs. The block, built in 1914 by Palen, is the most imposing structure in Niobrara. Abutted on both sides by smaller commercial buildings (to the west of it is the bank building), its distinction rested primarily in its accommodation of at least three or four commercial uses within one structure. The block is also an example of developmental commercial architecture of the early twentieth century, having followed the ideas of pioneer wooden commercial structures with the false front facades.
