Wilson Packing Plant
The Wilson Packing Plant was a division of the Wilson and Company meatpacking company located near South 27th and Y Streets in South Omaha, Nebraska. Founded in the 1890s, it closed in 1976.〔Larsen, L.H. and Cottrell, B.J. (1997) The Gate City: A history of Omaha. University of Nebraska Press. p 250.〕 It occupied the area bounded by Washington Street, South 27th Street, W Street and South 30th Street. Located on the South Omaha Terminal Railway and next to the Omaha Stockyards, Wilson was regarded as one of the "Big Four" packing companies in Omaha.〔("Farming in the 1950s and 60s" ), Wessels Living History Farm.

The South Omaha Neighborhood Alliance, formed in 1965, was apparently instrumental in the "closing and clean-up" of the Wilson plant.〔("South Omaha Neighborhood Alliance" ), Neighborhood Link. Retrieved 8/28/10.〕 The former plant and its site was redeveloped to be turned into an industrial park in 2003.〔("Environmental projects" ), Thiele Geotech, Inc. Retrieved 8/28/10.〕 Instead, the city's new Kroc Center was built on the site.〔("Football: Omaha Nighthawks land at the Kroc Center". ) ''Omaha World-Herald''. Retrieved 8/28/10.〕
There were a number of large riots and civil unrest that originated or included events at the Wilson Packing Plant.〔Nebraska Bureau of Labor and Industrial Statistics. (1894) ''Biennial report of the Bureau of Labor and Industrial Statistics of Nebraska.'' p 463.〕
The building was initially constructed to house the Skinner Packing Company, patriarchs of the current Skinner Pasta brands.
