Market Overview

The Arlington Heights Commercial Market

Arlington Heights is one of the largest and most commercially active suburbs in the Chicago metro area, with a deep inventory of retail, office, and industrial assets along Northwest Highway (Route 14), Rand Road, and Algonquin Road. The village’s selection as the site of the new Chicago Bears stadium is expected to drive massive new investment in commercial real estate throughout the area — creating opportunities for both sellers looking to capitalize on rising values and buyers seeking to position ahead of development.

Market Highlights

  • New Chicago Bears stadium driving major investment
  • Northwest Highway (Route 14) — high-traffic retail corridor
  • Strong office market along Rand Road and Golf Road
  • Metra commuter rail — Union Pacific Northwest Line
  • Dense residential base supporting retail demand
  • Proximity to O’Hare International Airport

Commercial Zoning

What Can You Open in Arlington Heights?

Arlington Heights regulates commercial property through nine non-residential districts — five business (B-1 through B-5), two manufacturing (M-1 and M-2), one office-transitional (O-T), and one institutional (I). The village is unusual in dedicating B-3 specifically to motor-vehicle-oriented uses and reserving B-5 for the pedestrian-oriented downtown around the Metra station.

Neighborhood & Community Retail

B-1 Limited Retail covers neighborhood-scale convenience retail in pockets adjacent to residential areas, while B-2 General Business handles community shopping centers along the major corridors.

Motor-Vehicle & Downtown

B-3 General Service, Wholesale and Motor Vehicle is dedicated to auto dealerships, service stations, repair, body shops, and parts wholesale; B-5 Downtown is the pedestrian-oriented central area around the Arlington Heights Metra station.

Office

O-T Office Transitional is restricted to professional and administrative offices developed under an approved Planned Unit Development.

Manufacturing & Institutional

M-1 Research, Development and Light Manufacturing groups offices, research labs, and light manufacturing; M-2 Limited Heavy Manufacturing covers larger manufacturing, distribution, and warehousing; and the I Institutional District covers schools, hospitals, and religious facilities.
