STEUBENVILLE Franciscan University of Steubenville is considering changing its campus access, contingent on acquiring a 10-foot strip of land next to Super 8 as well as another small parcel on Franklin Avenue near Capri Sausage Shop and convincing the city to vacate Franciscan Way West.
During Tuesday’s planning committee meeting, the university’s Joe McGurn briefed council on the concepts which he said are being talked about in university circles though no decisions to move forward have been made.
“It’s possible within the next couple of weeks, the board meets in April, that we’ll get authorization from our board to make Super 8 a residence hall,” McGurn said. “If that happens, we’ll be looking at starting renovations there this summer to make it an upper class residence hall.”
