INNOVATE INDIANA

MARQUEE PROJECT I | SECTION 6
INNOVATION DISTRICT SOUTH BEND
Much like the American Underground in Durham, North Carolina, the establishment
of a game changing set of opportunities to fuel the Innovation District requires a
couple of important things:
1) A BIG VISION. Our collective vision for the Renaissance District is to build the
Midwest’s Largest Mixed use Technology Campus, situated on 30 acres, comprised of
1.1 million square feet of real estate, consuming 80 MWs of power and housing
over 3,000 technology workers,
2) STRONG PARTNERS. The Regional Cities Initiative will catalyze $162.7 million
of capital investment in facilities and equipment, attract 1,806 new jobs to the district,
serve 7,120 students in workforce development capacity and create 2,050 additional
jobs throughout our region.
3) PERMISSION TO BELIEVE. A belief that will shape not just the Renaissance
District but will serve as a Symbol for our Region’s Economic Vitality. Our mission is
very simple… To build density of people and density of purpose.
Project Plan
The project plan consists of phased developments within the Renaissance District, including
campus stabilization improvements, Studebaker Factory Buildings 112, 113 and 84, and the
Studebaker Administration Building.
