At the heart of Creighton University’s campus, the Jérôme Nadal, SJ Jesuit Residence is more than a home, it is an embodiment of faith, learning, and connection expressed through architecture.
The residence serves as a modern sanctary for spiritual life, education and community, encouraging daily fellowship, reflection, and interaction. Timeless materials are paried with mass timber and contemporary forms to relfect both heritage and progress.
Perched above 24th Street, the glowing glass of the Our Lady of Montserrat Chapel serves as a visual and spiritual landmark visible across Creighton’s campus.
