On November 12, 2007, the Havelock Business Association welcomed J.L. Schmidt and Elizabeth Chase from the Nebraska Lied Main Street Program, to facilitate a “visioning” workshop. The object of the workshop was to identify revitalization, improvement, and marketing goals for Havelock. The workshop was attended by more than 30 individuals, including Havelock business owners, residents, and repsentatives from Lincoln Public Schools, the Lancaster County Events Center, and City government.
Stakeholders in the Havelock community are invited to review the DRAFT Havelock 2015 Vision Statement, along with the goals and comments generated at the workshop. Please feel free to forward this link to others in the Havelock community. The document will remain “open” to suggestions, edits, or revisions through the end of the year. Comments are welcomed and encouraged. Please send comments to:

These projects are part of theHavelock Redevelopment Plan. |
In 2005, the Havelock Pedestrian Link and Parking Lot redevelopment project was completed. Located north of Havelock Avenue between 62nd and 63rd Streets, improvements included enhanced lighting, landscaping, a shade structure and seating area, entry columns, and signage. Besides being a general community space, future uses of the Pedestrian Link could include a farmers market and art shows. Link improvements were financed by TIF funds.
General Funds were used to improve the parking lot. As part of parking lot improvements, the Public Works & Utilities Department constructed and is field testing a bio-swale. Bio-swales capture and filter pollutants such as oil, anti-freeze and heavy metals which collect in parking lots. This reduces the flow of pollutants into streams and lakes.
