Fontaine Research Park
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]
Expansion
On September 8, 2010, the University of Virginia Foundation received approval to expand its research park on Fontaine Avenue.
"The rezoning allows the foundation to expand to a maximum of 875,000 square feet of building space, up from the currently allowed 565,000 square feet. The foundation was also granted several special-use permits, including one allowing for the construction of a 60-bed hospital and another allowing for parking garages."[3]
