Countryside, Ill., has big plans for the future — a mixed-use town center along LaGrange Road, aka Route 66.
From the Suburban Life News:
Located on historic Route 66, the new center will be surrounded by pedestrian sidewalks along the new streetscape of La Grange Road.
The Town Center will serve as a gateway to the city’s commercial district. Included in the vision for development is an entertainment district, which will offer and intimate dining atmosphere on north La Grange Road.
The process is expected to take three to five years to complete, said City Administrator Ed Bailey. There are no preliminary price estimates on how much the project would cost. The city has found land to redevelop, the majority of which came from the space old auto dealerships once occupied, Bailey said.
