When McDonald’s moved its corporate headquarters out of Oak Brook, IL, our client Hines had the opportunity to create approximately one million square feet of new, mixed-use property. This ambitious, highly visible redevelopment lent itself perfectly to our team’s full breadth of innovative land development consulting services. We dove into this project’s challenges, including new and re-aligned roadways, sustainable parking, utility extensions and services, and stormwater management analysis and solutions that created additional buildable land area. This resulted in building pads for restaurants such as Gibson’s and Fogo de Chao, an apartment building, a hotel, an office building, and two luxury condominium buildings. We also coordinated with the landscape architect to create an engaging central park as a project feature, adding to the overall beauty and function of this impressive development.
