The Creighton Quad construction underway
Work continues on the Creighton Quad, a 251,500-square-foot vibrant, active green space coming to campus in fall 2026, located near 22nd and Burt streets.
The beautified 5.7 acres of natural grass will include an amphitheater, pavilion, stage, a fountain plaza and an ellipse with an art installation. Designed by OJB Landscape Architecture and constructed by Kiewit Corporation, it will mark the largest physical reshaping of Creighton’s Omaha campus in its 147-year history.
At an estimated cost of $22 million to $25 million, the Creighton Quad will be entirely donor funded, with a lead gift from the Robert B. Daugherty Foundation.
“The Creighton Quad will be Creighton’s own Central Park, a reimagining of campus green space that will live at the intersection of academic and residential life,” says the Rev. Daniel S. Hendrickson, SJ, PhD, Creighton president. “This transformation will forever change how our students, faculty, staff, alumni and guests experience campus.”
