Advertisements that ran in the Lincoln Journal Star when the building first opened in 1963 described it as “the prestige address in downtown Lincoln” and a “tower of gracious living.”
The application five decades later also noted why the building was worthy of inclusion as historic: “The original 1962 design of the building is essentially unchanged.”
While noting that the building in 2016 was still “in good condition,” the application also pointed out that it was “in need of mechanical system upgrades, and also is due for general repairs and cosmetic refurbishing.”
Those upgrades and repairs are finally going forward, according to the Lincoln Journal Star.
