==About==
The Sherman is a Neo-Classical Revival style apartment building, and according to the City of Omaha, was one of the first three apartment buildings constructed in Omaha. Named for Sherman Avenue, the former name of Omaha's North Sixteenth Street, today the three-story building is the oldest apartment building in the city. It has been in continuous use as an apartment since its construction.〔(Landmarks Heritage Preservation Commission ) Retrieved 4 June 2015〕
George H. Payne, developer of the Sherman, was one of the eleven board of directors of Omaha’s 1898 Trans-Mississippi and International Exposition which was held in nearby Kountze Park. The build site of the Sherman was selected because it was on the direct route to the entrance of the impending Trans-Mississippi and International Exposition and at the intersection of two important street car lines. Architecturally the Sherman is unique to the City, exhibiting the influence of the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition. In its use of classical elements, it also anticipates later apartment buildings with its simple, rectangular brick form.〔(More Nebraska National Register Historic Places tour ).
