EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Elmhurst Request for Proposal Summary:
The City of Elmhurst is seeking a proposal for the purchase and redevelopment of its 2 city-owned
contiguous parcels effectively known as 138 and 142 N. Addison Avenue, Elmhurst, IL (“the site”). The
site is currently utilized as a municipal parking lot with surface parking. Dimensionally the site is approximately 22,500 square feet, measures 150’ x 150’ with 150’ frontage along Addison Avenue. A rear alley
way services parking behind the buildings along Addison Avenue. Municipal sewer systems and water
systems directly service this site.
Elmhurst, IL is a city that attracts many families and businesses alike. The City is located within Dupage
County, and is located minutes from major transit including Metra and interstate highways and O’Hare
airport as well as being minutes to major shopping centers like Oakbrook Centre, Yorktown Mall, and
many fine and casual dining emporiums. Elmhurst has continued to grow even through the economic
downturn with new housing opportunities and business opportunities continuing to be developed.
The residents of Elmhurst are provided with first class medical services, highly rated schools, and many
unique retail shops. The new Elmhurst Memorial Hospital, Elmhurst College, as well as a walkable
downtown Elmhurst City Center are just some of the major attractions to Elmhurst. New development
and re-development, including infill, is occurring around the City of Elmhurst.
The site is Zoned C4, Central Business District, a part of the downtown core area of the City of Elmhurst.
The zoning is intended to provide for civic and retail services that are traditionally found in the central
business district. Many of the restrictions noted within the RFP with regards to C4 zoning have been
reviewed and maintained in our initial concepts for the site.

No dwelling units shall be located on the street level within the proposed plan.
We are not proposing a business, service or processing facility.
No drive through products will be proposed by us.
Truck parking would be prohibited within our proposal for this site.
Parking. Currently a 65-foot tall parking structure with 16,000 square feet of first floor retail and
690 public parking spaces is being constructed on Addison. The Addison Deck is located across the
street from the site. You will find in our proposal on-site parking at grade.
The Site is also located within a Tax Increment Financing District/Special Service Area. The TIF will expire
in 2021 and the sale of the site will be in conformity with the TIF statute. The site is located within the
Central Business District Special Service Area 6 which was established for the purpose of promoting and
marketing business in the Central Business District.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY CONTINUED
In reviewing the location of the site within the City and the City’s desire to sustain a pedestrian
environment, Next Generation Development considered the highest and best use of the site to be
a residential type structure. The city has concentrated its downtown vision on mixed-use developments which include office, retail and residential. The City’s new Addison Parking Deck will add
another 16,000 square feet of retail to the City’s Central Business District. To create density for this
site we have engaged in discussions with the owners to the North and to the South of the site to
gain an additional 50’-100’ in width to the total site.
In determining the potential for this redevelopment site, NGD reviewed Elmhurst’s demographics,
the current availability of housing in Elmhurst, the need for additional retail opportunities and
the City’s desire to sustain a pedestrian environment and the goal to support the City’s Central
Business District. We have also considered Elmhurst’s noted reputation of being named the Top
Ten U.S. Town for Families (Family Circle Magazine 2014) and the truly family centric atmosphere
of this city. Elmhurst college, named one of America’s Best Colleges (U.S. News & World Report) is
a top level private university and a draws students, parents, professors and administrators to the
area.
Next Generation Development is proposing that the City review our proposal for a downtown
5-story boutique apartment project. The project will consist of 52 luxury 1 and 2 bedroom
apartments ranging in square footage from 680 SF - 1,100 SF.
The ground floor of the building features:
•
•

Leasing office
3,372 SF for work out/media room or potential retail space
Refuse room
Lobby and elevator bank
Mail room
Bike storage
Electric room
Parking is supplied at the rear of the building, accessed by the current alley and supports 64
cars dependent upon ultimate 1st floor design elements.
Concierge office
Floors 2- 5 consist of 13 apartments per floor with 9 styles of apartments:
• 7 - 1 Bedroom Units per floor, for a total of 28, 1 bedroom units
• 6 – 2 Bedroom Unit per floor, for a total of 24, 2 bedroom units
Proposed building height:
• 10’8” first floor height
• Floors 2-6 have proposed plate heights of 9’8”
• Total building height is 52’8”

ADDISON STREET PROJECT DESCRIPTION & PROPOSED USES
Project Description:
The Project will be targeting a niche of luxury apartment seekers that seek a smaller more intimate
lifestyle within a boutique apartment community. With the project being within walking distance
to shopping, restaurants, and transportation, NGD sees this as the perfect complement to any
luxury condominium project in the immediate downtown area. The rent basis is targeted to be
at the upper end of the rent spectrum in this area. We compared rents at Regency Place, which
average 1,199 SF at $2.12 per unit, and AIMCO’s luxury townhome rentals at $1.80 PSF and rents
nearing $3,295.
The units would be finished in modern luxurious finishes, including granite, stainless, designer tile
and fixtures. An on-site concierge would provide for package deliveries, maid service scheduling
and more. The building would provide an on-site fitness area, and luxury lounge, concierge office,
leasing manager office, and business center for residents. Interior parking will be provided for
each unit. Bike storage will also be provided.
The exterior of the building would be in conformance with colors and materials found within the
downtown business district. The project at this juncture in its design is projected to be five-stories
in height. The façade would include balconies on all 2 bedroom units. The roof over the garage
could become an amenity with grill area, dog area, bar, and sundeck.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/PROPOSED USES

ADDISON STREET PROJECT DESCRIPTION & PROPOSED USES
Project Uses:
In consideration of the best and highest use for this property, NGD examined the current wants
and needs within the city’s business district. We gleaned that a higher pedestrian count is of
extreme importance to the city and its business owners as well as an increase in the tax roll. A
multi-story residential project would accomplish both goals and would be in-line with the cities
vision for this area of the central business district.
As the City completes the 6 story, approximately 65’ high, Addison Parking Deck across from the
site, the entire streetscape of this street is changing to a more urban and densely constructed
streetscape. The Addison parking deck is purportedly providing for over 16,000 square feet of
future retail, therefore we do not see the need for additional retail for this project.
In our evaluation, the square footage of the City’s site doesn’t provide enough area to construct
a financially viable residential project. A for-sale condominium project could also be considered,
when and if, end-user financing and development financing becomes more tolerant of condominiums.
Next Generation Development has spoken to each of the neighboring owners who are interested
in selling their lots. We see the possibility of gaining control of either the lot to the north or the
lot to the south of the site, which will add 50’ in width to the project for a more viable and feasibly
end use.
Additionally, NGD visited with Elmhurst College to entertain possible student housing. At this
time they do not have any need for additional housing for their student population as many of the
students commute to the college.

PURCHASE PRICE:
In the evaluation of the project costs, we have been able to roughly estimate acquisition
and construction costs. At this time we are unable to put a value to the city's lots until such
time as the proposed use is accepted that is outlined within this RFP. We have yet to acquire the
adjacent parcels and estimate demolition expense and acquisition expense. Therefore, we
cannot yet determine the final yield on cost and the ultimate value of the city's land.
