Officials To Rework Development On Former Culligan Site

New additions to the mixed-use site plan may include rental apartments, a Mariano's grocery store, a daycare center and a fitness facility. A less than favorable economic climate prevented residential options from consideration initially, officials said.

The former Culligan site just off I-294 at Willow Road, now slated for a 40-acre total redevelopment plan, will see Astellas Pharma’s U.S. headquarters move in this spring, TribLocal reports.

In addition to the pharmaceutical giant, the site will be anchored by Glenstar Properties, a commercial real estate company. Glenview trustees are now considering the inclusion of rental apartments, a  preschool and an L.A. fitness, Triblocal reports. To do this, Glenview will need the go-ahead from Northbrook and Prospect Heights, amending the village’s current agreements with the Willow Road sharing municipalities.
