BREAKING: Aurora backs out of AHPRC deal

Aurora Health Care and Marquette University have terminated their partnership on the new Athletic and Human Performance Research Center (AHPRC) on the corner of 12th and Wells Streets, per a joint press release on Wednesday.

“The project has continued to evolve and we both agreed it wasn’t the right fit moving forward,” the statement reads. “The vision behind the AHPRC remains strong and the future facility will continue to move forward.”

Aurora Health Care was set to pay $40 million for the initial project as the primary sponsor before the project was downsized from a 250,000-300,000 square foot facility to a 46,000-square foot facility in its current location.
