DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS History
The Lexington Correctional Center
was opened in 1971. It consisted of a
collection of wooden naval barracks hastily
constructed during late World War II. It
initially had a capacity of 120 inmates.
Although the facility opened in 1971,
it remained obscure with virtually no
documented history until 1977 when the
Lexington Assessment and Reception
Center (LARC) opened adjacent to the
Lexington Correctional Center (LCC).
Since the opening of LARC, both LARC
and LCC have been under purview of a
common warden and have become
virtually synonymous. Most staff refer
to the reception unit as “LARC”
(pronounced “lark”) and the
remaining housing units as “Lex.”
The Lexington Assessment and Reception
Center began construction in 1976 as
a part of the Oklahoma Master Plan,
authored by F. Warren Benton, Ph.D.
The maximum security receiving, medical,
support services, and administrative core
building composed Phase I;
Phase II constituted three medium
security housing units.
