New Wishard Project Gets Developers

Duke Realty and Browning Investments have been selected by the Health and Hospital Corporation of Marion County to develop a new office building for the New Wishard Project in Indianapolis according to the Indianapolis Business Journal. The new faculty building will be constructed in a 200,000 square foot lot adjacent to the new Wishard Hospital which is currently under construction near the campus of IUPUI.

The $754 million New Wishard project includes a 327-bed inpatient hospital and is scheduled for completion at the end of 2013. Wishard project leaders registered the 1.2 million sq. ft. campus to achieve United States Green Building Council (USGBC) Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Silver certification that will make it the first newly built hospital in Indiana and one of 10 in America certified LEED Silver or higher.

"To be selected to develop part of The New Wishard campus provides Duke Realty with yet another opportunity to demonstrate our support of this community and to provide a quality facility that will enhance the health of residents through our expertise in health care development," said Denny Oklak, Chief Executive Officer of Duke Realty. "We are proud to be involved in the development of The New Wishard campus," added Michael Browning, President, Browning Investments. "Our experience will aid us in ensuring that Wishard receives a facility that enables them to succeed in their mission."
