Located on the “upper” Main Street in this community that recently became a part of Omaha, the wood building features a dance floor in a room highlighted by an inlaid wood ceiling. This turn-of-the Century structure reflects the grand era of brewing in Omaha when Metz, Krug, Willow Springs and Storz were the big four names in breweries. Metz Brewery closed because of the Prohibition in 1920 and the property was sold off. The Elkhorn hall has potential as an historic gem if it can be preserved.
