It's the STEM Innovation Academy charter school. Being close to the University and in the research park helps with the schools branding/marketing. Not meant as a criticism of the school or charters in general, but it's more important for charters because they don't have a natural catchment like CBE/CSSD.

Here's an article from a few years ago when it was first announced (here). Multiple schools have been operating out of the building for a few years now. The construction now is to add a gym to the building.
It would be the East Riverside Project

Its been for sale for a while and I've always thought it would be a good location for a smaller *tokyo vibes* mixed use development

I don’t know if it’s been mentioned, but it appears construction has started on the 6th SE street underpass.

It’s nice that there’s another underpass going in, but is there a reason they would do 6th st se before doing 11th St.?

Basically just politics... The province is paying for it because of the new arena, and their proposed rail station.

It is for sure under construction. I passed by yesterday, but wasn’t able to get a pic.
