Five more Nebraska locations have been put on the National Register of Historic Places; something their respective communities should be happy about, according to the State Historic Preservation Office.
National Register Coordinator David Calease says having a historic building in a community can provide a financial boon, especially in cities with small downtowns and plenty of millennial consumers

Calease says there are strict requirements for a location’s approval

This round of listings included a farmstead in near Norfolk, the two Late Victorian era homes in Plattsmouth, a Prairie School style building in Arlington, the Stanton Carnegie Library in Stanton and Cozad’s downtown district.
According to Calease, all the listing selected for the register stood out due to the historical nature of their architecture.
