JLL represented the seller, IRC Retail Centers, and Sperry Equities acquired the asset.
Built in 1988, the 75-percent-occupied center is anchored by Ross Dress for Less and DD’s Discounts, and additional tenants include Five Below, Dollar Tree, T-Mobile, H&R Block, and more.

The center is just 40 miles west of downtown Chicago and 12 miles west of downtown Naperville. The property benefits from nearby retail centers, including Chicago Premium Outlets, Lake Plaza and North Aurora Towne Center, as well as numerous healthcare centers, such as Ascension Mercy Hospital, Rush Copley Medical Center and Advocate Health Care. Within a three-mile radius is a population of 108,848, an average household income of $87,717 and an overall buying power of $3.4 billion.
