The final step of Ford’s Theatre’s most significant renovation and expansion in its history is the Center for Education and Leadership. Construction ws completed and the new building opened in February 2012. The new Center will be located across the street from the theatre and adjacent to the Petersen House, where Lincoln died. The center will house three floors of museum exhibition space, administrative offices and educational facilities.  Here the visitor will continue to explore the lasting effect Lincoln’s presidency and its untimely end have had on citizens of every nation.
