Browning has begun leasing its second project in the 16 Tech Innovation District in Indianapolis. Innovation Building 2 will offer 145,000 square feet of class-A office and innovation space designed to support the operations of companies from advanced industries.

A six-story structure, the building will feature open office designs and spaces that promote collaboration among tenants and nearby companies and researchers. The building also will include retail and food/beverage options.

Innovation Building 2 will sit adjacent to Innovation Building 1, a 120,000-square-foot research and office facility being constructed by a partnership between Browning and Davis & Associates and on track to open in summer 2020. The fully leased $40 million Innovation Building 1 will serve as the headquarters for the Indiana Biosciences Research Institute (IBRI), the Central Indiana Corporate Partnership (CICP) and its advanced industry initiatives and also house IU School of Medicine researchers.

Located on the near west side of Indianapolis, 16 Tech will bring talent together to collaborate and drive cross-sector innovation in advanced industries. The nonprofit 16 Tech Community Corporation oversees the development of the district.
