The University broke ground in mid-September on the first residence hall built exclusively for first-year students since the 1960s, and the first new residence hall of any kind since 2006.
The $37 million hall will be built on 23rd Street, south of Burt Street, just north of McGloin Hall, and will accommodate 400 students. The new residential facility will offer a significant number of suite-style rooms, which permit more independent living and have become the preferred option for students around the nation.
The residence hall will reflect Creighton’s commitment to diversity and inclusion with dedicated interfaith spaces and spaces for wellness and academic support programs. Socialization will be encouraged by construction of an elevated outdoor courtyard for gatherings and events. Completion is expected in time to welcome freshmen for the fall 2023 semester.
