Glen Turpoff, executive director of the Northern Illinois Building Contractors Association, said the project carries features typically associated with more metropolitan areas.
He said the complex design includes elements of buildings in those areas that look to create a “living environment” for multiple purposes during the workday.
Turpoff said that while Summit Real Estate Developments is taking a financial chance by attempting an unproven design theme for this area, he still called A Perryville Place “a pioneering project” that could prompt other developers to think differently.
“I think it is going to be successful,” he said. “I think it is going to be a precursor to other novel and interesting approaches to development.”
