The building was featured prominently in the 2002 film About Schmidt, where the titular character Warren Schmidt (Jack Nicholson) was employed. The Woodmen Tower also replaced several buildings in historic downtown, including the Old City Hall and Edward Rosewater's Bee Building.

The tower also surpassed the Nebraska State Capitol as the tallest building in Nebraska, which held the title from 1930 until 1969, when the Woodmen was completed.
