Telegraph District Wins People’s Choice Regional and Urban Design Award

Clark & Enersen recently won the People’s Choice Regional and Urban Design Award for our master plan of the Telegraph District in Lincoln, Nebraska. The awards garnered 107 entries across eight categories, with the nominated projects being viewed by more than 1,000 people. The award was presented at AIA Nebraska’s annual Excellence in Design Gala, which was held at the Kimpton Cottonwood Hotel in Omaha on November 12, 2021. In attendance from Clark & Enersen were former president Lowell Berg, AIA, and architects Matt Glawatz, AIA, NCARB, LEED AP, and Evan Gunn, AIA, NCARB, LEED AP.

Our firm was hired by Speedway Properties and Nelnet to develop a master plan for the Telegraph District, as well as provide infrastructure design services. The master plan lays out a new, cohesive district that honors the history of the area and the impact telephone companies have had on the local economy over the last 100 years. It also helps ensure the district integrates seamlessly with downtown Lincoln, Antelope Valley, the University of Nebraska-Lincoln campus, and other nearby developments.
