ROCHESTER, Minn. — Mayo Clinic's plans to build a new downtown Rochester research center are growing to a 11-story building from the original proposal for a four-story complex.

Mayo Clinic on Tuesday, April 27, announced that seven floors are being added to the Anna-Maria and Stephen Kellen Building, which was originally introduced in 2019.

The new center is being built in the heart of the Destination Medical Center’s Discovery Square area.

Mayo Clinic officials say the goal is to open it in the fourth quarter of 2023. Groundbreaking is expected to happen this spring.
