Oak Brook Terrace, IL (PRWEB) July 31, 2007 -- Easy access and a unique infill opportunity in one of the top-rated communities in America has contributed to robust leasing activity at Freedom Commons, a 25-acre retail and restaurant development underway in Naperville, IL, in Chicago?s western suburbs.
More than 25% of the project?s 42,000 square feet of retail space has been pre-leased, and another 25% is in leasing negotiations, according to William Krug, president of Wm. Krug, Inc., which is developing and managing the project in a joint venture with The Harp Group.
?Freedom Commons represents a rare opportunity to tap into an area that has been repeatedly ranked by Money magazine and other sources as one of the best places to live,? he said. ?When the Freedom Boulevard/I-88 exchange is completed later this year it will allow easy, direct access -- not only for residents of Naperville and nearby communities, but also for thousands of people who work in the area, as well as guests of the numerous hotels in the vicinity.?
Occupancy will begin in November for the project?s four retail buildings.
Meanwhile, an L.A. Fitness health club, Fidelity Funds, and restaurants Maggiano?s Little Italy, Morton?s The Steakhouse, Champps Americana, and The White Chocolate Grill are building free-standing locations at Freedom Commons.
?Officials from the City of Naperville were extremely cooperative throughout the planning and approval process, greatly contributing to the project?s success,? said Peter Dumon, president of The Harp Group.
