Discovery Park District at Purdue is a 400-acre mixed-use innovation district located at the western gateway of Purdue University's West Lafayette campus in the U.S. state of Indiana. The district is a $1 billion development project that includes research facilities, residential housing, commercial space, and corporate partnerships. The Purdue Research Foundation leads the development in partnership with Browning Investments LLC as master development partner. Discovery Park District represents an expansion of the original Discovery Park concept established in 2001. While the original Discovery Park focused on interdisciplinary research facilities, Discovery Park District encompasses residential, commercial, retail, manufacturing, and research components. The district is located adjacent to the Purdue University Airport and near the Martin C. Jischke Hall of Biomedical Engineering and Ray W. Herrick Laboratories.
