JLL Capital Markets announced that it has closed the sale of City View at the Highlands, a 403-unit, luxury, value-add, mid-rise apartment building located in the Chicago suburb of Lombard, Illinois.

Situated at 2720 S. Highland Avenue and spanning five acres, the transit-oriented City View at the Highlands is adjacent to Butterfield Road and two major expressways, I-88 and I-355, leading to both of Chicago’s international airports, the Chicago CBD, the surrounding suburbs’ area amenities and top employment centers.

Additionally, the community’s location in DuPage County offers access to top healthcare options such as Northwestern Medicine Central DuPage, Advocate Good Samaritan and Edward Hospital, as well as a number of college campuses.

The JLL Capital Markets team representing the seller was led by Senior Director Kevin Girard, Senior Managing Director Marty O’Connell and Executive Managing Director Matthew Lawton.
