WEST FARGO, N.D. (January 2019) – Doosan Bobcat North America plans to house a new digital business innovation center in the Black Building in downtown Fargo, North Dakota. The Black Building is owned by Kilbourne Group, a real estate developer focused on the revitalization of downtown Fargo.
“We’re excited to have the Doosan Bobcat team join our high-energy downtown business community,” said Mike Allmendinger, president of Kilbourne Group. “They will be a great addition to the community of businesses who are making downtown Fargo one of the most exciting places in the region.”
