The developer of a mixed-use project in downtown Naperville envisioned a blend of ground-floor retail and upper-level apartments, with convenient access to nearby shopping, dining and outdoor amenities, including the Naperville Riverwalk. DMA coordinated initial efforts to secure an architect and general contractor and has managed design work through the schematic phase.

To obtain necessary City approvals, DMA oversaw a design revision process that modified the initial building footprint and height while meeting the client’s requirements for anticipated retail and apartment rent. Plans for the five-story development include four residential levels and onsite surface parking.
