LEXINGTON, Ky. — University of Kentucky officials broke ground Monday on a 1,000-seat dining hall that is to house a Panera Bread restaurant and a research institute aimed at bolstering the use of locally grown food.
"The 90" — named for the right-angle juncture of Hilltop and Woodland avenues, where the building will sit — is a $32 million, 80,000-square-foot structure built by food services corporation Aramark as part of the multinational company's new dining services contract with UK.
