Northwoods of Naperville plans progress
The planned redevelopment of a dormant office building site along Warrenville Road is progressing. The Naperville Planning and Zoning Commission recently took action on a granular detail related to the previously announced 64-unit Northwoods of Naperville townhome project.
The Northwoods of Naperville proposal was first unveiled in February and has since gone through a series of reviews and approvals within the Planning and Zoning Commission and on the city council. At Wednesday’s meeting, commissioners approved a sign proposal that is larger than normally permissible under municipal code.

With all major approvals in place, M/I Homes has announced it plans to begin pre-sales within the 12.18-acre property, 1151 E. Warrenville Road, in the fall.
