Lincoln defeats Taylorville 41-25 in the
season opener |
The
portion of the Lincoln Developmental Center, commonly known as
Lincoln Estates, is being rehabilitated into the Illinois Youth
Center for Central Illinois by the Illinois Department of Juvenile
Justice. The four cottages to be used are at the south end of the
LDC campus, with two on the west side of State Street and two on the
east.
In addition to the four cottages, a fifth building will be
constructed. It is anticipated that the new youth center, a minimum
to medium security detention facility, will be ready to open in
2023.
