INTRODUCTION
The Cornerstone Exchange is a unique, multi-vendor dining area on the ground level; created for the campus and community to exchange ideas, exercise innovation, and experience local food and drinks. It is committed to featuring homegrown, Kentucky-based companies.

In addition to the amenity-rich mixed-use space, the Cornerstone Exchange would provide the University with much-needed additional parking capacity on the Northside of campus, adding 900 new parking spaces.
