Roosevelt Road Hotel Properties

Updated June 13, 2022

Background 

On January 12, 2022 the Village of Glen Ellyn closed on two Roosevelt Road hotel properties at a cost of $2.85 million. The properties consist of approximately 2.2 acres and include two buildings located at 675-677 Roosevelt Road and 660 Taft Road.

In anticipation of closing on the hotel properties, the Village issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) in August. In September, the Village selected Kon Savoy Consulting Group of Evanston, IL to assist in identifying a vision for redevelopment of the site and to recruit potential developers. The Village has begun accepting public input on the redevelopment of the properties, which will continue through late April.

In February 2022, the Village Board established the Roosevelt Road/Taft Avenue Hotel Sites Work Group and appointed ten members of the Glen Ellyn community. The Ad Hoc Work Group held three public listening sessions in April, May and June to solicit public input and gather information on potential redevelopment of the sites.

Following completion of the Listening Sessions by the Ad Hoc Work Group, the Village will be engaging in a visioning process. The process will be led by the Village's consultant, Kon Savoy Consulting, and wil bring together existing site constraints, the results of a market analysis and the public input received. This information will be used to inform the development of up to five (5) different concept plans for the site. Concepts considered for the site may include commercial retail and restaurant uses, multi-family housing, attainable housing, or mixed-use development.
