awaters+FollowBig cancer drug facility coming to BloomingtonBloomington is about to play a major role in cancer treatment—Simtra BioPharma Solutions just snapped up a massive 65-acre property here to expand production of injectable cancer medicines. This move could make Simtra the first U.S. company to manufacture antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) at commercial scale, bringing a supply chain that’s usually overseas right into our backyard. For locals, this means more jobs, more innovation, and a stronger health care presence. What do you think about Bloomington becoming a hub for cutting-edge cancer therapies? #Business #Industry #Bloomington00Share
Tanya Jackson+FollowBloomington shelter at breaking point: Fee-free adoptionsEvery kennel at the Bloomington Animal Shelter is full, and summer’s surge of stray animals is pushing the staff to their limits. To help these pets find homes, the shelter is waiving all adoption fees until August 10. With more animals arriving daily and fewer people adopting during vacation season, the shelter is calling on the community to step up—whether by adopting, fostering, or even just spreading the word. Spaying and neutering pets is also crucial to easing the pressure. How can we work together to make sure every animal gets a chance at a loving home? #Pets #Bloomington #AdoptDontShop100Share
Michael Wilson+FollowBloomington’s coolest garage: Cadillac meets DatsunImagine finally tracking down the car you lost decades ago—and parking it right next to your classic Cadillac. That’s exactly what Cynthia Clapham did in Bloomington. After years of searching, she found a rare 1982 Datsun 280ZX 2+2, bought it sight unseen from Nebraska, and had it shipped home. Now, her driveway sports both the massive ’72 Cadillac Eldorado and the sleek Datsun, each with its own story. For Cynthia, these cars aren’t just rides—they’re memories, family, and dreams come true. Anyone else have a car that brings back big memories? #Cars #Bloomington #ClassicCars00Share
Vanessa Brown+FollowBig boost for Bloomington: Simtra expandsSimtra just snapped up a massive 65-acre property on Bloomington’s northwest side, aiming to ramp up production of critical medications—including cancer treatments. This move could mean more high-quality jobs and a major redevelopment of the old GE site, which locals have been hoping to see revitalized. With nearly 2 million new cancer cases in the U.S. each year, having a company like Simtra invest here feels like a win for both health innovation and our local economy.
