SWC Route 31 & Alexander Drive - LFI Retail Development 16 Acres of Commercial Land in Johnsburg, IL 60050

This prime commercial outlot presents a rare opportunity to acquire a high-visibility, strategically positioned parcel directly at the signalized intersection of Route 31 and Running Brook Farm Boulevard in Johnsburg, Illinois. Located immediately in front of Walmart, one of the region’s dominant retail anchors, the site benefits from exceptional exposure to consistent daily traffic patterns, with Route 31 carrying approximately 22,000 vehicles per day. This level of visibility, coupled with direct access along a major commercial corridor, makes the property ideally suited for retailers, service providers, or operators seeking to capitalize on the momentum of an established shopping destination.
Surrounded by nationally recognized brands including Walmart, DSW, Ulta, and PetSmart, the property offers a built-in customer base drawn from both local residents and the broader McHenry County trade area. Demographic fundamentals around the site are strong, with notably high average household incomes and a robust daytime population supported by steady commercial activity. These attributes enhance the long-term value proposition for developers or owner-users looking to plant a flag in a growing suburban market with significant commercial demand.
The parcel’s configuration, accessibility, and visibility create meaningful flexibility for various development concepts, whether retail, medical, restaurant, or service-oriented uses. Its proximity to established traffic drivers and substantial residential neighborhoods strengthens its position as a future high-performing location with sustained consumer engagement. As one of the few remaining outlots in a fully built-out commercial node, this offering provides an increasingly scarce opportunity for buyers seeking land with true competitive advantage.
With its combination of strong retail co-tenancy, high traffic counts, favorable demographics, and anchor-supported positioning, this Walmart outlot stands out as a compelling acquisition for investors or operators seeking a well-located, high-impact development site in the heart of Johnsburg.
