IU IncubatorIU is breaking ground today on a $10 million life-sciences and Internet-technology incubator in Bloomington. The new facility will be 40,000 square feet and is scheduled for completion by July. It will be built at 10th Street and the State Road 45/46 bypass. The school already has a 67,500-square-foot incubator downtown on the Central Canal. That facility is 98 percent occupied, with 23 tenants. What do you think of the new facility, which was designed by Indianapolis-based BSA LifeStructures?

    I don't get downtown as much as I used to. Do you have a picture of the building on the canal? I'm assuming the picture shown now (12:33pm 11/18) is the building planned for Bloomington.
    Thanks.

    BTW, the IUETC building on the canal was not designed / built for them -- It used to be Office Works, a commercial furnishings business.

    It is Indianapolis news becuase they have a current building on the Canal and it is being designed by BSA. Also, it's not like there is currently too much news to digest in Indianapolis that we can't have news from surrounding areas.

    As a contractor in Indianapolis it is nice to see current projects in surrounding areas.

    This is not meant to serve as an EffKay comment, rather is my take on seeing building news from areas surrounding Indianapolis and their impact on our local business environment.

  1. These higher rates Co. e about only because physicians are now hospital employees. otherwise physicians couldn't charge these rates and share the windfall with the hospital. Community/rural hospitals probably not buying physicians practices and thus weren't getting the windfall anyway.

  2. The incentive for poor people to get themselves off public assistance and "no longer be poor" is even with help...they're STILL POOR! Being poor, even with some assistance, isn't all that pleasant. (I speak from experience) It's a stubborn myth that poor people, who are on public assistance, are sitting in the lap of luxury. You should try living on just those "freebies" that you mentioned and see how meager they actually are. By the way, I didn't mean you had to buy/own a puppy...just pet one. :)

  3. As near as I can tell the minority has ZERO constitutional obligation to offer a quorum to the majority. A requirement for quorum was inserted into the constitution so that tyrannical majorities could not simply shove through odious and objectionable legislation (which is exactly what they did.) By allowing a tyrannical majority to charge fines against the minority for exercising their constitutional prerogative to deny quorum the court as made a mockery of constitutional governance in the state of Indiana.

  4. The voters elected the Reps to make a vote not walk out on the vote. They had to the right to exercise their opinion and vote "no" to the bill. Let me ask you this if you walked out of your job for 5 straight weeks would you get paid? Would you even have a job to go back to? If any elected official walks out on the people they should be arrested for stealing tax dollars from the public. They were elected to do a job and not leave when the job gets stuff.

  5. I have been to several of their locations in Pennsylvania and always go in for 1 item and leave with a basket full of things. I'm very happy they decided on Indiana, now if only they would put the other store in eastside.
