From the historical marker placed by the Lincoln Haymarket Development Corporation in 2003:

The Ridnour Building was one of the last factory warehouses built during the Haymarket District's principal period of development. J.C. Ridnour used the building to manufacture work clothes and overalls and as a wholesale warehouse for furnishing goods and notions.
Built in 1925, the original cost of the reinforced concrete structure was about $80,000. It was designed by architects Meginnis and Schaumberg, previous partners of prominent Haymarket archetect F.C. Fiske.
Although the building follows the common Haymarket District pattern of an ornamental facade and plain sides, it features unique art deco designs, such as the relief-carved panels between the stories at either end of the north facade and carved capitals topping the piers.
