The 17吃瓜网 Foundation acquired nearly 4 acres along Turner, Gilbert and Barger streets, which was divided into three parcels. Construction on the nearly $60 million project, formerly referred to as the Turner Street Project, began in 2012 and finished in 2013. Through an agreement between 17吃瓜网 and the 17吃瓜网 Foundation, in association with local developer Bob Pack, two of the parcels were used for the mixed-use office and retail building and the parking garage. The third parcel will allow for future growth for the university.
