GRAYSLAKE, IL—The Woodmont Co. of Dallas says it will begin construction on phase one of its four-building Washington & Barron Commons retail center here this summer.
The development, being built at E. Washington Street and Barron Boulevard, will be built in two phases. This summer work will commence on phase one that will involve an approximate 9,000-square-foot freestanding building for Kiddie Academy and a nearly 4,500-square-foot single-tenant building, which is available for lease.
Phase two will feature an estimated 8,000-square-foot multi-tenant building and another nearly 3,000-square-foot single-tenant building, both of which are also available for lease.
“The Woodmont Company believes this is a great opportunity to provide retail in an underserved area,” said Grant Gary, president of brokerage for The Woodmont Co. “The center will be located in dense residential community with average income at $116,000.”
