Key Naperville Developments in 2025

How Strategic Land Sites Are Reshaping the Market for Investors and Occupiers

Naperville has long been one of the premier suburban markets in Chicagoland, but beneath the surface of its Class A office parks and bustling retail corridors lies a wave of untapped potential. In 2025, key land parcels across Naperville are offering investors and occupiers something rare: large-scale, infrastructure-ready development opportunities in a land-constrained, high-demand submarket.

Here are five of the most notable land sites—and two additional opportunities—currently poised to reshape the commercial real estate market in Naperville. These are just a few of the opportunities available. The best ones? We reserve those for our clients.

How These Sites Will Shape Naperville’s Real Estate Market

For Investors:

Naperville’s west and south corridors are among the last frontiers for land assembly and ground-up development. With growing demand from office, retail, residential, and industrial users, these sites offer rare optionality and long-term appreciation potential.

For Occupiers:

New products are scarce and increasingly needed. Users across categories (medical, logistics, professional services, quick-service restaurant, etc.) will find these locations offer the visibility, access, and zoning flexibility to support long-term operations.

For Market Dynamics:

Expect rising land values, firmer lease rates for new construction, and more hybrid-use development models (especially around CityGate Centre and Ferry Road). These listings are the catalyst for the next cycle of real estate expansion in Naperville.

Work With Naperville’s Local Market Experts

The five sites above are a great place to start your due diligence, but the best off-market opportunities, strategic assemblages, and high-leverage repositioning deals are only available to clients of Van Vlissingen & Co. Contact our team of Naperville commercial real estate agents to learn more about the Naperville development landscape.
