South Bend Redevelopment Commission <br />Regular Meeting —March 13, 2012 <br />6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) <br />C. Airport Economic Development Area <br />(7) continued... <br />was unmet demand in the community for <br />office space for high tech businesses. His <br />adjoining manufacturing business, Deluxe <br />Sheet Metal, moved to a new location in an <br />Airport Industrial Park, opening up <br />additional space for the growing technology <br />companies he housed, but his business has <br />now outgrown both sites. <br />He has long looked at the six -story Ivy <br />Tower building of Abe Marcus directly south <br />of the tracks from him as a possible building <br />to expand into, but wasn't able to figure out <br />how to make a connection to the two <br />buildings. <br />Now, it appears that it might be possible, <br />with the Commission's help, to vacate United <br />Drive to create a corridor into which to move <br />his heavy power requirements to the other <br />side of the tracks. Union Station is at the <br />fundamental crossroad where he could build <br />a larger and central power plant type <br />structure which he has been working six <br />years to develop. He would also purchase <br />the Millennium Environmental parcel. That <br />would allow him to move the core energy <br />(Union Station) from the north side of the <br />tracks and thereby allow him to expand the <br />Union Station by another 20,000 sq. ft. that <br />would have otherwise have been taken by <br />energy systems. This is a grand opportunity <br />to repurpose Union Station and repurpose it <br />from an old, not optimized environment, to a <br />new technology framework. <br />21 <br />
