Developer Hopes To Build Apartment Complex At Route 59 and Theodore In Joliet

Continental Properties held a neighborhood meeting last night in Shorewood so the community to see artists drawings of a potential multi-family development proposal in the city of Joliet at Route 59 and Theodore Road. About 75 people attended the casual meeting.

The multi-unit complex would consist of 300 apartment rentals within seven buildings, sitting on 12 acres of land next to the CarMax. The complex would include a clubhouse and pool.

City of Joliet asked Continental Properties to gauge resident’s interest before they go before the planning and zoning department. A traffic study has not been done.

Rentals would average $1,400 a month for a one bedroom and $2,300 for a two bedroom apartment.

Continental Properties owns similar apartments in Oswego and Lockport.
