First building going up at Nucleus innovation park

LOUISVILLE, Ky.—Officials broke ground today on the first building to go up at Nucleus Innovation Park Downtown, a nine-acre research park on and around the former Haymarket property.

The $18 million, eight-story building initially will house a center devoted to developing new products and services for the aging. Seven other tenants have signed letters of intent and three more have expressed interest in moving into the building, said Vickie Yates Brown, Nucleus’ president and chief executive officer.
