Navy Seeks Buyer for ex-Fort Sheridan Housing

HIGHLAND PARK, IL-The Navy housing has been removed on this 37-acre parcel on the North Shore. CB Richard Ellis is marketing the land for $25 million. Plus more Midwest news.

HIGHLAND PARK, IL-Forest City Enterprises Inc., on behalf of the US Navy, has hired CB Richard Ellis to market a 37-acre parcel of vacant land just south of the former Fort Sheridan, straddling Highland Park and Highwood on both sides of Patten Road. The property, which at one time held housing for Navy families, is for sale for $25 million.

Fort Sheridan was a US Army base built in 1886. The base closed in the first round of base closures in 1993, and most of the 632-acre base has been turned over to commercial or residential uses. However, various public entities held onto part of the land. The US Army Reserve used 90 acres, and the Navy had 206 acres of housing to support the Great Lakes Training Center a few miles to the north.
