St. John the Baptist Greek Orthodox Church stands at 602 Park Avenue in Midtown Omaha, Nebraska, designed by architect John Latenser, Sr. in Byzantine style. Originally built in 1908 as Temple Israel, the structure became a city landmark when the St. John's parish—whose congregation had formed in 1907 to serve Omaha's growing Greek community—purchased the building in 1951. The architectural translation of the edifice from Jewish to Orthodox Christian use reflects both the building's enduring design quality and the evolving religious landscape of early twentieth-century Omaha.
