The Destination Medical Center (DMC) initiative — a $5.6 billion, 20-year development plan — is transforming the downtown core with new hotel, office, retail, and residential projects centered around the Heart of the City subdistrict. Discovery Square, a DMC subdistrict dedicated to biomedical and technology startups, is attracting lab and innovation office tenants adjacent to Mayo's main campus. Outside the downtown core, commercial activity along the U.S. 52 and U.S. 63 corridors serves the growing residential population drawn by Mayo's employment base.
