Description
Jones Lang LaSalle Americas, L.P. (“JLL”) has been retained on an exclusive basis to offer qualified investors the opportunity to acquire Golf Mill Town Center – a 1.1 million square foot regional mall situated on 79-acres in a high barrier to entry location within the City of Niles, a northwest Chicago suburb. While the Property offers flexibility for future use, it has been approved for a transformative redevelopment into a vibrant, mixed-use project with open-air retail, multifamily, hospitality, and medical office uses. The current redevelopment plans contemplate repositioning the long-standing enclosed mall into a highly functional mixed-use project that will include several category leading national anchors such as Target, Ross Dress for Less, Burlington, ULTA, and others. The project has been approved to receive Tax Incremental Financing (TIF) for up to $96M based on the current plans. In addition, the seller is under contract to sell 13.1 acres of land to two separate multifamily developers for $13.9M, lowering a potential investor’s basis. Golf Mill Town Center is a unique opportunity to acquire a value-add, mixed-use redevelopment project anchored by market dominant tenancy.
