Mokena Marketplace
W Lincoln Hwy, Mokena, IL 60448
About
Mokena Marketplace is a premier retail shopping center located at a highly visible intersection along West Lincoln Highway in the rapidly growing southwest suburbs of Chicago. Once farmland, the site has been thoughtfully transformed into a major commercial destination that serves both the local community and the broader regional market.
Spanning approximately 60 acres, the center is anchored by Meijer and JCPenney, providing strong daily traffic and long-term stability. The marketplace is further enhanced by a mix of national and service-oriented tenants nearby, including Chase Bank, PetSmart, Crumbl Cookies, and Chipotle, reinforcing its position as a go-to retail hub.
The development overcame significant site challenges, most notably the relocation of a river that originally ran through the property. By moving the river to the perimeter, the project unlocked the full potential of the site while maintaining environmental integrity and enabling a cohesive, accessible retail layout.
What Makes This Project Special
Mokena Marketplace delivers substantial economic and lifestyle value to the City of Mokena. Its scale, tenant mix, and strategic location make it one of the most desirable retail centers in the area—supporting continued growth while serving as a cornerstone of the community.
