The Fontaine Research Park is a multi-use 54-acre research park located off of Fontaine Avenue in Albemarle County, near the University of Virginia's Central Grounds. The facility is owned and operated by the University of Virginia Foundation[1].

Future development

In 2018, the Board of Visitors approved a master plan for the future of the Fontaine Research Park to serve as a "hub for translational research and outpatient care." Some clinics currently at the UVA Medical Cednter will be moved to this site to reduce congestion and open up new space. [2]
