Located just 20 minutes from St. Louis, Park North is the 95-acre centerpiece of the pending I-55 Corridor Development Plan and is strategically positioned to become the Gateway to Edwardsville. Located in the Gateway Commerce Enterprise Zone, the site is directly adjacent to the new Plummer Family Sports Park and its 400,000+ predicted visitors for 2023. The Sports Park will be connected to IL Highway 143 via the planned Sports Park Drive roadway running north through the length of Park North. A new 4-way signalized entrance off IL 143 into the site is scheduled for completion in early 2024.
Construction on the initial phase of Park North began in September of 2023 with the 1st phase businesses to include a hotel, golf driving range/entertainment complex, several restaurants and a food/fuel concept. The site contains an existing water feature, attractive existing green-space and there are plans to link the property to the Ronald Foster Trail to the south which would facilitate connection to over 125 miles of existing walking, running and biking trails.
Economically speaking, a high local median household income, educated work force, excellent business environment, low cost of living and plentiful existing complimentary demand generators make the Park North site ideally suited for mixed-use commercial development end users.
