Lincoln Central Library

Post by F0R_L1F3 »

BVH released renderings a few minutes ago. Taking over the SCC downtown facility. If all goes accordingly, SCC might also build a new campus in part near the Telegraph District. Three new developments possible as the original site might be slated for convention center mixed use.

That’s a great reuse of the Centrum. Though the Journal Star article says that all SCC programs left downtown will be moving to the main campus at 88th and O. I was told by the dean of a program that used to be downtown that the plans to build a new campus downtown had been scrapped years ago.

Would be great if the Bennet site turned into a mixed-use development.

Seems like a great plan. Much cheaper than building new at Pershing and also opens up that site for development

Would be a great location for the new location. The current SCC creates a dead block with little activity going on.

Yup. I quickly attached this so I didn't get the rest of the photos when it was announced but here's where some renderings are if anyone wants some more. https://www.1011now.com/2025/05/15/live ... ouncement/
