Developing opportunity

A new, mixed-use health innovation district is coming to the iconic shores of Lake Michigan. And we’re seeking diverse partners in its construction.

This 70+ acre redevelopment of the former Michael Reese Hospital site will serve as a global hub for innovation and wellness. The project aims to help shape the landscape of the community, establishing a model for community wellness that promotes health for people, the neighborhood, and the planet.

We invite you to be part of building this rich future with us.
