Wiesman
Development is Omaha's oldest and one of the largest exclusively commercial
private developers. Founded
in 1955 by Benjamin Wiesman, it began with the ownership
and management of duplexes and apartments. Within a
few years, the company expanded into the development
of office, retail and industrial properties. By the
mid-sixties,
it specialized exclusively in commercial real estate.
In the mid-sixties, Wiesman "brought on line" the
very first call center in the world for Whirlpool
Corporation in Michigan. This coordinated construction
effort, with the assistance of AT&T, Collins Radio, and
many equipment suppliers, was the first customer service
call center in the world.
Wiesman Development is a full-service office, retail
and industrial real estate developer. If the client desires, Wiesman
Development selects the land, designs, builds
(through a related entity, Build and Lease, LLC), leases
and then manages the facility after the client has moved
into its premises. Providing consulting services, separately
or in conjunction with other functions, is another facet
of the company.
Throughout
its history, Wiesman Development incorporated state-of-the-art
energy-conserving designs and materials into all buildings,
utilizing double-pane thermal insulated glass and entry
vestibules, double-thickness of roof and exterior wall
insulation, HVAC economizers, and other energy-efficient
components. These construction techniques became the
basis for the "green eco-friendly" buildings of today. These environmentally friendly
energy practices
were passed on to the building users in the form of
lower operating costs. Pioneering the use of these energy-saving
and other quality-controlled standards, built into its
buildings from the start, has given Wiesman's clients
excellent value.
The company has numbered among its customers AT&T,
Qwest, First Data Resources, American Express, Alltel,
Windstream, Union Pacific Railroad, Hewlett-Packard
(H-P), Children's
Hospital & Medical Center, Methodist Hospital, Hyatt Hotels, Avis, Budget Rent-A-Car, Stryker Orthopaedics,
ITT, Waitt Media, and many others.
Our reputation
for over 55 years has been built on strong client
relationships and outstanding quality and service at a competitive
price.
