A HISTORY OF INNOVATION.

■ The Electric Works campus got its start in the late 1800s with the establishment of

The Fort Wayne Jenney Electric Light Company

■ Inventor James A. Jenney chose the spot to manufacture his Electric Arc Lamp and a small

generator called the Dynamo; a campus building still bears the Jenney Company name

■ Soon after, General Electric acquired an interest and then purchased the campus outright

in 1899; the Fort Wayne Electric Works of General Electric was created in 1911

■ Over the course of 100-plus years, tens of thousands of GE workers built industrial products

ranging from rotating machines to commercial lighting and refrigeration units before

focusing on small electrical motors and electrical transformers in the early 20th century

■ The campus played an integral role in GE becoming one of the world’s largest producers

of these devices throughout the 1930s

■ During World War II, GE emerged as a powerhouse supplier of superchargers for military aircraft

■ The campus’ century-long culture of adaptability, innovation and manufacturing excellence

lives on today with Electric Works

BUILDING 19 CONSTRUCTION IN 1916

CENTRALLY LOCATED. Electric Works is located in downtown Fort Wayne, just south of

the central business district and a short stroll from the historic

West Central neighborhood and its thoughtfully restored homes.

The commercially vibrant Broadway Corridor bisects the site north and

south, creating an East and West Campus. The first phase, of which

Building 19 is the centerpiece, will focus on the West Campus.

Linked by history, culture, and geography, the residential neighborhoods

located directly adjacent to Electric Works are tree-lined with ample

sidewalks and street parking. The community is celebrated for its

cultural and demographic diversity and its working-class pride. The

campus is just a few blocks from Parkview Field, home of the Fort

Wayne TinCaps. It is a short bike ride to the Rivergreenway, Fort

Wayne’s nationally recognized, 100-mile-long trail system.
