CHICAGO, IL (OCT. 19, 2016) – Englewood Construction, one of the country’s leading commercial construction firms, announced its retail group has completed the ground-up construction of a 120,690-square-foot Blain’s Farm & Fleet in Romeoville, Ill.
Located at 451 S. Weber
Road, the store opened in October as the national retailer’s 37th location and
its nearest to Chicago. Charlotte, N.C.-based Little Diversified Architectural
Consulting was the project architect.
“As a national contractor,
we pride ourselves on our ability to create a seamless experience for retailers
as they expand their geographic footprint,” said William Di Santo, president of Lemont, Ill.-based Englewood
Construction. “This project gives Farm & Fleet its first presence in Will
County, enabling them to reach a new group of shoppers in Chicago’s popular
southwest suburbs.”
Di Santo noted the Farm
& Fleet project illustrates a trend in the retail sector of big box
retailers opting for out-of-the-ground construction in new locations, allowing
them to reimagine their physical space in order to enhance the brand experience
for consumers.
“This project is a prototype Farm & Fleet,
so it’s an exciting opportunity for the brand to not only introduce a new store
design, but also partner with Romeoville to develop this prime location into a
vibrant retail corridor,” said Di Santo.
