The heliport: Edison Lakes, 2010

ACTIVATED JUNE 2010 · OPERATIONAL, NOVEMBER 2026

The record: The second of the two federal facilities carrying Mishawaka's name is the working one: the St. Joseph's Regional Medical Center Edison Lakes heliport, identifier 5IN2, at the hospital campus at 5215 Holy Cross Parkway — the Mishawaka Medical Center whose own record is carried whole in this build's Hospitals pass. The federal record (5010, printed 10 November 2026) reads: privately owned by St. Joseph's Regional Medical Center; activated June 2010, the year after the hospital itself opened on the parkway; one acre; elevation 749 feet; a single concrete helipad, H1, 80 by 80 feet, in fair condition, with perimeter lighting and a lighted wind indicator; private use, permission required prior to landing; manager of record Greg Kozlik; last inspected 19 January 2021, and its information current in the record as of a request dated 20 March 2026. Its status in the November 2026 federal display is operational — the only aviation facility on Mishawaka-associated ground that is. One small conflict rides the record and is printed: the January 2026 rendering of the federal data gave the owner's address as "N. Main St. & Douglas Rd., Mishawaka," while the current record gives 5215 Holy Cross Parkway; the current record governs, and the older rendering stands as the hospital's pre-move address echoing in the data. The near-misses are excluded by their own records: the Beacon Granger hospital heliport's associated city is South Bend, and the old St. Joseph hospital heliport belongs to the closed South Bend campus — neither is Mishawaka's.
