The University of Illinois has canceled a plan to build a massive research hub near downtown Chicago, choosing instead a lakefront site nearly 10 miles south. The Discovery Partners Institute was supposed to kick off development at The 78, an empty stretch of riverfront southwest of the Loop where developer Related Midwest wants to plant a new neighborhood. University leaders say they will now establish most of DPI’s research and lab space at the former U.S.
