St. Francis College, Franciscan mainstay since 1859, to move to new Downtown Brooklyn campus
St. Francis College recently announced its plan to move from its longtime campus on Remsen Street to the Wheeler Building at 181 Livingston St. in Downtown Brooklyn, a new 10-story addition to a historic Art Deco building containing Macy’s department store.
St. Francis College’s relocation is the foundation of the 162-year-old private Franciscan institution’s transformative new initiative, SFC Forward, which it undertook in early 2021. The new campus will open its doors to students in September 2022.
“We are excited about SFC Forward and our relocation,” said Denis J. Salamone ’75, Chair of the St. Francis College Board of Trustees. “This initiative will make us more competitive and ensure future generations of Terriers receive life-changing academic and student experiences affording them increased social mobility.”
