Crews started clearing the way for significant downtown development Monday, beginning to knock down the Lincoln Journal Star's former building that was part of a 140-year history of newspaper publishing at the corner of Ninth and P streets.
The Journal Star operated from the building at 926 P St. for nearly 70 years before vacating the space at the end of August, but earlier versions of the newspaper have been produced there since 1881.
That's when the Nebraska State Journal moved into a building at 900 P St.
For 14 decades, newspapers under various names distributed news from the city, state, nation and world to Lincoln residents from that block.
