New facilityA wall-breaking ceremony was held on February 26, 2010 in order to mark the beginning of the renovation of the old Roadway Express records building, which was built in 1916.[5] AHAP's prior home in the basement of the Polsky building, which provided only {{convert|10000|sqft|m2}} of storage space and lacked a prominent location, helped fuel the decision for the facility to re-locate. The new Center for the History of Psychology (CHP), opened August 30, 2010 with {{convert|75000|sqft|m2}} of space available, houses not only AHAP but also a museum of psychology and a space for the preservation and digitization of historical materials.[6] Current funding allowed for the renovation of the first floor of four-story facility, with the other areas of the building being completed as more funds are secured. The first floor houses the gallery, the reading room, office space, and some collections.[7] See also
