Roundup: Blood Center finds new Fishers home, Duluth Trading Co. opening soon

Indiana Blood Center in Fishers will relocate this spring.

The blood center currently is in the Fishers Station development on the northeast corner of Allisonville Road and 116th Street, where Kite Realty Group Trust plans to redesign the building's configuration.

The redevelopment plans impact the blood donation center’s space, which prompted the  relocation.

Andrea Fagan, director of public relations and marketing, said the new location (see rendering) will be at 11069 Allisonville Road within the Village Square retail center.

The 2,065-square-foot donation clinic is expected to open at the end of March or beginning of April. It's a bit smaller than the current, 2,300-square-foot space.

“It has been an excellent opportunity for us, frankly, because we were able to design from scratch a new footprint for the donor center with some amenities and layout intended to enhance the experience donors have in our centers,” Fagan said in an email.
