Conor Commercial Real Estate, a member of The McShane Companies, is pleased to announce commencement of a 70-Acre, Class A industrial business park, the only new business park development in the I-55 Corridor located in Bolingbrook, Illinois.
Fountain Square Commerce Center (www.fountainsquarecc.com) will consist of four speculative buildings for multi-tenant or single-tenant use, ranging in size from 109,088 to 320,532 square feet, divisible into spaces of 30,000 square feet or more. Once complete, the properties will feature ample on-site vehicle and truck parking, substantial dock door positions, 32’ clear ceilings, ESFR sprinkler systems as well as office space to-suit. Fountain Square Business Park also features a 12-acre build-to-suit site. Newmark Grubb Knight Frank’s (NGKF) Brian Carroll, executive managing director, and Jim Cummings, director, will lead the brokerage team assigned to lease the new development.
“Fountain Square Commerce Center will be a state-of-the-art industrial park focusing on serving tenants with requirements of 30,000 to 320,000 square feet,” said Cummings. “Not only will the park give companies an opportunity to be in the hottest submarket for industrial real estate in the Chicagoland area, but companies will also benefit from the park’s advantageous location, a myriad of dining, lodging, retail, and nearby recreation and entertainment amenities. Conor Commercial Real Estate is committed to the market, and thus, has the confidence to construct four of the buildings at one time.”
Located along the I-55 Corridor at Remington Boulevard and South Schmidt Road in Bolingbrook, Fountain Square Commerce Center offers easy access to the Interstate Highway System and is close to an abundance of retail and dining options. The park is also readily accessible to O’Hare International Airport, Midway Airport, as well as DuPage County Airport and offers low real estate taxes.
