OVERVIEW

Located on the west end of one of Chicagoland’s fastest-growing communities, Orchard Road is the up-and-coming commercial corridor. The corridor is currently anchored by Jewel Osco and the Whitetail Ridge Golf Dome with several new projects under construction. Several businesses have already made the move to Orchard so be sure to get in on the action now before the arrival of proposed commuter rail service drives up prices even further.
