Our building sits across the street from CWRU’s main campus, providing a tight connection between our community and university resources, including faculty expertise, core facilities, and student workforce talent.  

Importantly, our location provides unparalleled clinical access, too. Cleveland Clinic, University Hospitals, and the Louis Stokes Cleveland VA Medical Center are each within a mile of our front door.

And, thanks to our location in the University Circle neighborhood, we’re within walking distance of world-class institutions such as Cleveland Botanical Gardens, the Museum of Natural History, the Cleveland Art Museum, and Severance Music Center, home of the famous Cleveland Orchestra. There is also a rich array of dining and stores in Little Italy and the Murray Hill areas.
