Market Diversification
In 1974, following the energy crisis and resulting recession that affected the entire country, Schemmer embarked on market diversification to provide services for new markets. The firm took on the following projects:
- Plaza 108 Shopping Center | Omaha, Neb.
- Leonard Wood | Fort Leonard Wood, Mo.
- Commercial Federal Savings and Loan | Omaha, Neb.
- Northwest Bank & Trust | Davenport, Iowa
During the market diversification, Schemmer also focused on public sector work, which resulted in the Department of Defense awarding engineering services to Schemmer for the following projects at Offutt Air Force Base in Bellevue, Nebraska.
- 300 family housing units
- Thomas S. Power Library
- Child Development Center
- Youth Center
We began working on major projects for the Veterans Administration in Omaha and Grand Island, and the concern for energy conservation led to the firm being commissioned to design the Omaha Housing Authority's solar-assisted LaFern Williams Center.
