A $23.5 million innovation center is now open on the site of the former Chrysler engine manufacturing plant in Kenosha. After years of discussions, city leaders announced plans for the “Kenosha Innovation Neighborhood” in an attempt to revitalize the site. EmailThe Kenosha Innovation Center, which officially opened Wednesday, takes up just over 3 acres of the 107-acre Kenosha Innovation Neighborhood. “The Kenosha Innovation Center is the place where ideas become companies, and companies create jobs, and we want that,” said Kelly Armstrong, president of Kenosha Innovation Neighborhood. “So that it really becomes another neighborhood,” Casey said about the Kenosha Innovation Neighborhood.
