The Gering Courier Building is a historic building in Gering, Nebraska. It was built in 1915 as the third headquarters of the Gering Courier, whose founding editor, Asa Wood, served as a member of the Nebraska Senate.[2] He was followed by his son, Warren C. Wood, who served in World War II.[2] The building was designed in the Classical Revival style, "with symmetrical pedimented entrances flanked by pilasters and a parapeted roofline with a large classical cornice."[2] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since October 15, 2004.[1]
