Crown Community Development received approval from the Village of Sugar Grove, Illinois, for The Grove, a 760-acre master-planned community.
The project will include various housing options; an activated town center; over 200 acres of open space featuring parks and trails; public amenities; and a variety of commercial uses. The Grove is strategically located at the interchange of Interstate 88 and Route 47, 45 miles west of Chicago.
The Grove’s approved master plan – covering zoning, subdivision and annexation – includes Planned Development District (PDD) zoning across five distinct development areas. The PDD zoning will allow for various uses that meet both market demands and community needs over the course of The Grove’s build-out.
Intentionally designed to offer a robust lifestyle experience, The Grove will feature multigenerational residential areas; a town center anchored by a village green with retail, restaurants and entertainment; a highly-amenitized village park; and designated commercial zones for retail, community services, healthcare, e-commerce distribution and/or data centers. More than 200 acres of open green space will include parks, trails and naturalized areas that preserve 70 acres of mature tree groves in the area.
