Student Union Building (IUPUI Campus)

The Student Union Building served as the first hub for student-related activities on the IUPUI campus. The Union Building was originally equipped with a hotel for medical students on the IU Medical Center, but gradually evolved and, with the merging of Indiana University and Purdue University, became the first campus center for students located at the downtown campus. The building would change purposes multiple times by hosting various departments and administrative offices until the land swap between Wishard and IUPUI in 2008. The land swap led to the property transfer to the new Eskenazi Hospital, which would choose to demolish the building rather than save it. The original site of the building was located north of the Ball Residence Hall and western end of the Ball Convalescent Gardens. The Union Building made up the western campus of the IU Medical Center alongside the Rotary Building.
