CBRE is pleased to present the rare opportunity to acquire the former Herald-Times Building in Bloomington, Indiana ("Property").​ Built in 1961, this once marquee building is a versatile commercial asset located along one of Bloomington's primary transit corridors.​ Positioned on approximately eight acres of prime land (with six acres highly usable), the property features a 61,000-square-foot, three-story building that has served as a bedrock of local community history for over six decades.​
The property is being offered for disposition on behalf of Monroe County Community School Corporation (MCCSC).​ Due to its substantial footprint, expansive parking, and strategic zoning, the site is well positioned for a wide range of adaptive reuse strategies, including commercial or medical redevelopment, institutional expansion or community hub space, STEM, innovation, or specialized training facilities, and high-density residential or mixed-use development (subject to local rezoning).​
​Strategic Location: Located within a stable, university-anchored market with consistent demand drivers that support long-term investment and leasing fundamentals
​Expansive Transit Frontage: Unrivaled exposure on South Walnut Street, capturing significant local drive-by volume. Strong visibility and access with proximity to downtown and Indiana University, supporting interest from a range of commercial, institutional, and residential users
​Adaptive Reuse Potential: Opportunity for developers to reposition the asset into higher-value uses such as mixed-use, multifamily, or flex/industrial
​Robust Infrastructure: Built originally with industrial-grade standards to house heavy print infrastructure, offering high load capacities, expansive structural clear spans, and immediate functional utility
​Excellent In-Place Parking Ratio: Over 170 parking stalls accommodate dense medical, office, institutional, or educational user traffic
