Project Description

The adaptive reuse of a historic cornerstone building at 329 Cherry Street in downtown Scranton. The rehabilitated building is the site of SCC’s behavioral health clinic and administrative offices, as well as a pharmacy and primary health clinic to provide support services for the clinic’s clients. For the last 40 years, it has been operating out of a former Sears department store that was adequate but certainly less than desirable for its needs.
