1st Floor
SVN Chicago Commercial proudly presents this unique leasing and sales opportunity in business-friendly West Chicago, IL. Formerly the Bowling Green Sports Center, this expansive building is now ready for the next business to call it home. In its heyday, this large property was a staple of the neighborhood, offering top-class bowling, food and drink, sand volleyball, arcade, and more. The bowling alley has since closed its doors; however, the building did welcome a new Haunted House/Escape Room business, which is operating there today (see financial page for rental info). This property still has the bones of an entertainment center, but it can also be retrofitted for a number of different uses, including division into smaller rental units. The interior is half gutted, as the current owners recently abandoned a renovation project within. A large, expansive basement also creates opportunity for additional ventures and is fitted with walk-in coolers and other trade fixtures. Surrounded by an office/industrial park, a large shopping center, and future retail development across the street, this site is primed for its next jolt of life. The exterior of the building is still solid, and there is more than ample parking on the site. Bring your ideas and watch them succeed at this gem of a property.
Rent Types
The rent amount and type that the tenant (lessee) will be responsible to pay to the landlord (lessor) throughout the lease term is negotiated prior to both parties signing a lease agreement. The rent type will vary depending upon the services provided. For example, triple net rents are typically lower than full service rents due to additional expenses the tenant is required to pay in addition to the base rent. Contact the listing broker for a full understanding of any associated costs or additional expenses for each rent type.
1. Full Service: A rental rate that includes normal building standard services as provided by the landlord within a base year rental.
2. Double Net (NN): Tenant pays for only two of the building expenses; the landlord and tenant determine the specific expenses prior to signing the lease agreement.
3. Triple Net (NNN): A lease in which the tenant is responsible for all expenses associated with their proportional share of occupancy of the building.
4. Modified Gross: Modified Gross is a general type of lease rate where typically the tenant will be responsible for their proportional share of one or more of the expenses. The landlord will pay the remaining expenses. See the below list of common Modified Gross rental rate structures: 4. Plus All Utilities: A type of Modified Gross Lease where the tenant is responsible for their proportional share of utilities in addition to the rent. 4. Plus Cleaning: A type of Modified Gross Lease where the tenant is responsible for their proportional share of cleaning in addition to the rent. 4. Plus Electric: A type of Modified Gross Lease where the tenant is responsible for their proportional share of the electrical cost in addition to the rent. 4. Plus Electric & Cleaning: A type of Modified Gross Lease where the tenant is responsible for their proportional share of the electrical and cleaning cost in addition to the rent. 4. Plus Utilities and Char: A type of Modified Gross Lease where the tenant is responsible for their proportional share of the utilities and cleaning cost in addition to the rent. 4.
