The Illinois Institute of Technology on Friday named architects John Ronan Architects and Shepley Bulfinch to design a new $40 million innovation and technology entrepreneurship institute on the South Side campus.
The institute will be the first new academic building to be built at IIT since 1968.
Shepley Bulfinch, headquartered in Boston, is known for designing the Art Institute of Chicago in 1892, when the firm was known as Shepley Rutan & Coolidge.
John Ronan Architects designed the Gary Comer Youth Center and the Poetry Foundation.
To help fund the initiative, IIT has received a $10 million challenge gift from alumnus Ed and Carol Kaplan.
Ed Kaplan co-founded Zebra Technologies, a Lincolnshire-based maker of bar-code label printers.
IIT intends to match that grant. The Kaplans had previously given $1 million toward the institutions creation. Groundbreaking is expected to take place in late 2015 and could open as early as 2017.
The center will be focused on learning how to create things, and will work with IITs technology park to commercialize those things, said IIT President John L. Anderson at a news conference at the tech park on Friday.

LOUISVILLE Louisville will get a new four-diamond hotel along with a much-anticipated downtown grocery, retail shops and 200 apartments under a $261 million downtown development plan announced today by Mayor Greg Fischer and Governor Steve Beshear.
Omni Hotels & Resorts will build a 600-room convention hotel on the old Water Company Block at Third and Liberty streets that will be adjacent to 200 apartments constructed by The Cordish Companies, according to a news release from Omni. The project the fist Omni in Kentucky will also include an upscale grocery and retail space for other shops.
The development will be among the largest projects under construction in the region and will be a catalyst for the continued revitalization of downtown Louisville, Fischer said today. Construction is anticipated to begin in 2015 and the project will open no later than 2017. The project is a joint deal between Omni, Cordish, Metro Government and the State of Kentucky, which is providing support in the form of a rebate of taxes that will be generated by the project.
He and Beshear were joined by Cordish Director of Development Nick Benjamin and Mike Deitemeyer, president of Omni Hotels & Resorts, in making the announcement.
This project is a major infusion in our downtown and to the citys entire economy, Fischer said. It will create jobs, both temporary construction positions and permanent jobs, and it will boost our convention and tourism industry as Omni provides a new level of luxury hotel.
Fischer said that he is particularly pleased that downtown will, at long last, get an upscale grocery.
Citizens and visitors have told us for years that a grocery was the biggest missing component to downtown, Fischer said. Im pleased to say that a new grocery is on the way.
This investment will be a catalyst for more convention activity, while bringing more out of state visitors to Kentucky, said Gov. Beshear. By leveraging the Kentucky International Convention Center and Louisvilles dynamic downtown, the plans for the project will bring added excitement and events to Louisville. Its these types of public/private partnerships that help make Kentucky the ideal place to conduct business and share ideas.
The Omni Louisville Hotel, in conjunction with the planned expansion of the Kentucky International Convention Center, will serve as a critical amenity in the retention and expansion of conventions to the state, Gov. Steve Beshear said.
The project will create 1,350 construction jobs and 350 permanent jobs. The specific components of the project are:

Luxury hotel coming to downtown Louisville
City Hall anticipates reaching an agreement next week with the team redeveloping the building once known as the Main Street Mall to reduce the impacts of the construction on nearby businesses.
Park City officials, representatives from the contractor and a Main Street leader are scheduled to meet Wednesday afternoon to discuss possibilities at the site. The construction zone, the largest on Main Street, has come to symbolize an increasingly tense situation along the popular shopping, dining and entertainment strip. There have been widening complaints in recent weeks about a drop in sales on Main Street that businesses are pinning on a series of construction sites.
Businesses close to the onetime Main Street Mall site, particularly those uphill from the construction zone, are especially displeased. They say that sales in some cases have tanked as pedestrians have not ventured past the construction zone to the businesses beyond.
Chad Root, the chief building official at City Hall and one of the municipal government's negotiators, outlined three options for the site in an interview on Thursday.
They are:
Root in the interview cautioned the second and third options could slow progress, extending the work by up to a year beyond the expected completion date. The developer recently indicated the project could be completed in December. The second and third options involve shifting loading, unloading and material storage to the upper Park Avenue side of the site, Root said. Doing so could be politically risky, though, given the residential nature of upper Park Avenue. The people who live there would almost certainly object.
"There's no win on it, for sure. It's a no-win situation," Root said.
Root spoke to Mayor Jack Thomas and the Park City Council during a Thursday meeting, describing the ongoing talks between City Hall, the contractor and Main Street. He said the sides remain concerned. Root acknowledged that the contractor did not make significant adjustments over the past week while waiting for further direction from the elected officials. More skis were affixed to the Main Street-facing construction fence, though, he said.
Root told the elected officials the construction crews at the former Main Street Mall site could at some point request to be allowed to temporarily close part of Main Street to traffic to bring a crane to the location under the second and third options.
Thomas and the City Council took comments from a few people about the construction zone. Two speakers worried about activity being shifted to upper Park Avenue. Another speaker, The Eating Establishment owner Rick Anderson, said it is important that sidewalks remain open as he described a decline in sales. He worried that the work is setting a precedent along Main Street.
