The Annual Thomas Rogers Kimball Lecture
Thomas Rogers Kimball and the Building of the Nebraska State Capitol
Bob Ripley will speak to the essential role of Thomas Rogers Kimball in securing the renowned architect Bertram Good-hue for the design of the State Capitol as well as oversight throughout the construction phase. Beginning in 1983, Ripley’s core job was to restore and preserve the Nebraska State Capitol, a National Historic Landmark. As a member of the national and state American Institute of Architects, he was invested in the AIA College of Fellows. With extensive community education and activism, Ripley worked to develop collaborative conservation practices that preserve and maintain Nebraska’s most important working and historic monument. Additionally, he oversaw the office of the Capitol Commission, a talented and dedicated staff of 26 who worked to keep our Nebraska treasure polished and productive. Mr. Ripley retired in 2023.
