One of the most impactful stories long-term on Detroit isn't in the core of downtown, but up by the New Center and TechTown.

The Henry Ford Health + Michigan State University Health Sciences Research Center is will be a seven-story, $335 million building that will be home to various medical research teams devoted to cancer, neuroscience, cardiometabolic diseases, and immunology — as well as the Nick Gilbert Neurofibromatosis Research Institute.

I saw that major visible progress is being made and wanted to share a little update.

You can find it on Third Street, south of the boulevard and across from the Pistons Performance Center.

Part of the wider $3 billion Henry Ford and MSU partnership, this should be ready in 2027.
