Current canonical record

124-acre campus on Textile Road south of the Huron River's Ford Lake Dam. Property purchased for $8.1 million.

The project remains planned, but its site and utility path are materially uncertain. Planet Detroit reported May 18, 2026 that a University of Michigan regent described the Textile Road location as 'dead' and that the university was trending toward a Willow Run/American Center for Mobility alternative, while significant complications and community opposition remained. The Gander's July 16 directory says U-M was still pursuing the facility despite the YCUA water/sewer moratorium and was expected to choose a site by the end of July.
