This mixed-use entertainment development includes retail, restaurants and entertainment venues centered around a core Central Green - providing flexible seasonal uses and activities in all four seasons.

Our team served as the landscape architect in collaboration with the project architect to develop the overall master plan, urban fabric and open space design. Confluence was charged with the development of the central space surrounded by a variety of restaurants, the unifying streetscape design and pedestrian design, and all of the landscape and hardscape details. One of the many facets of the design is its pedestrian connectivity where every part of the development is connected by a walkway linking Block 59 together allowing users to park once and meander for the duration of their visit.

This redeveopment was highly anticpated in Naperville and redevelops an existing retail center into a vibrant community asset. The design is an inviting, retail-friendly, pedestrian-oriented entertainment venue for the city and the Central park will host a multitude of events including musical performances, movies in the park, ice skating in the winter and will become a new gathering place for the surrounding community.
