FORMER HANNA CENTER SITE SLATED FOR $10.2M RIGHT STEPS CHILD CARE FACILITY
The former site of the Hanna Community Center on North 18th Street would come down and be replaced by a child care center with room for 182 spots – including some for second- and third-shifts – under a plan up for a zoning hearing this week.
Right Steps, a nonprofit agency that has four child care centers in Greater Lafayette and others in the region, is looking to build a $10.2 million facility that also would be a learning lab for students at the Greater Lafayette Career Academy and Ivy Tech Community College.
The project – on land being donated by the city and funded in part by a Lilly Endowment grant through the Community Foundation of Greater Lafayette and money from a local share of Indiana’s Regional Economic Acceleration and Development Initiative (READI) grants – is aiming for an April 2027 opening, Tammey Lindblom, Right Steps CEO, said.
First up is a rezoning request going to the Area Plan Commission Wednesday evening.
