The public funding <br /> is supplemented by funds from the University of Notre Dame in one of the largest investments to <br /> date from the University in off-campus community initiatives. <br /> Pending Redevelopment Commission final approval, construction will begin under the <br /> management of South Bend Heritage Foundation,the South Bend Board of Public Works and <br /> Vanir Group Inc. (Vanir specializes in all aspects of commercial and institutional real-estate <br /> development.
