On Wednesday, Noblesville city officials joined Indiana Joint Replacement Institute and the Skillman Corporation to break ground on a $28 million, 40,000 square-foot surgery center facility and medical office building dedicated to hip and knee replacements.
The building will be located at the corner of 141st Street and Olio Road in Noblesville as part of Innovation Mile.
Indiana Joint Replacement Institute will be the first new building within Innovation Mile, a dynamic business and technology hub of approximately 600 acres that will serve as an anchor for revolutionary thinking and a gateway for innovation, leveraging long-term growth opportunities and catalyzing reinvestment in the City of Noblesville.
“This is a major milestone for Innovation Mile as we welcome Dr. Meneghini and Indiana Joint Replacement Institute as our first tenant,” Noblesville Mayor Chris Jensen said. “Today’s groundbreaking is an early step in our efforts to create an anchor for innovation in our community, which will have an impact on Hoosier patients for generations.”

The Indiana Joint Replacement Institute is a statewide orthopedic enterprise founded and led by Dr. Michael Meneghini and continues an 18-year tradition of elite hip and knee replacement care for Hoosier patients across the State of Indiana. Currently, the practice has two locations in Indiana: Terre Haute (opened August 2022) and Fort Wayne (opened October 2022) and will be opening a third location in Naples, Fla., in October. The flagship facility will be in Noblesville when this project is completed in early 2025.
“Today is an exciting day for Indiana Joint Replacement Institute,” said Dr. Michael Meneghini, CEO of Indiana Joint Replacement Institute. “Our vision to bring innovative hip and knee care across the State of Indiana is being fully recognized with the development of our flagship facility and the partnerships with the City of Noblesville and Skillman Corporation. Our flagship facility located within the City of Noblesville’s Innovation Mile has been designed to promote innovation and advance hip and knee replacement care through research, education, and advocacy. By providing an elite experience with superior outcomes, we help patients return to their highest level of function, quality of life, and happiness.”
The Noblesville facility will include an ambulatory surgery center with four operating rooms, a hip and knee orthopedic clinic with 20 exam rooms, physical therapy, X-ray, a research gait lab, and an education and research conference center.
As previously announced in July, Innovation Mile also will be home to the Noblesville Event Center, a 3,400-seat arena that will be the future site of the Indiana Pacers G League franchise.
