ABOUT NORTH CHICAGO

Historically, the western portion of North Chicago was zoned exclusively for manufacturing and warehousing space uses. Just off Route 64 and Interstate 90, this industrial space hub allows commercial tenants to easily reach one of the highest population densities in the Chicago region, with over 10 million people residing nearby.

 

North Chicago's manufacturers and distributors benefit from the area’s dense, infill location and span across various industries. Local tenants and owners include Coca-Cola Bottling Company in Niles (250,000 square feet and 1,200 employees), grocery store giant Albertson's, the parent company to Jewel (790,000 square feet and 300 employees), and general merchandise distributor Regent Products Corp in River Grove (559,000 square feet and 200 employees.)

 

Over the past few decades, millions of industrial square feet of industrial space have been demolished in North Chicago, as many industrial owners capitalized on quickly rising land values by selling to multifamily and office developers. The decline in available space and steady tenant demand keeps its overall occupancy rate high and availability rate low.
