LOMBARD, Ill., Jan. 22, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Avgeris and Associates Inc., a privately owned and operated commercial real estate investment company, in partnership with The Missner Group and Wylie Capital, is thrilled to announce the acquisition of International Corporate Park, commonly known as the former American Hotel Register site in Vernon Hills, Illinois.

Originally developed in 1996, the 70.4-acre site features a 257,927-square-foot, 34′ clear height, existing warehouse building. which will remain and play a role in the redevelopment, and a five-story, 202,000-square-foot office building, which will be demolished making way for over 900,000 SF of new industrial space in up to 4 buildings. “The Vernon Hills area has a high demand for Class-A industrial buildings,” said Barry Missner, CEO of the Missner Group. “We are looking forward to partnering with Avgeris and Associates Inc. and Wylie Captial to redevelop a great piece of infill real estate.”

Stewart Mills of Avgeris & Associates shared, “With the ability to accommodate over 1,100,000 SF of industrial space on site, and proximity to I-94, this is an ideal location for logistics, manufacturing, and transportation users.” Jason Simon of Wylie Capital added, “Without change in zoning directive from municipalities in south Lake County, this shovel ready site is the largest industrial land site available in the area. The last few years taught us that having scale and the ability to accommodate growth is critically important to where business decides to locate, and we have both. While under contract, we received unsolicited inquiries from brokers and end users, so we are excited to see how their interest in the site develops.”

Redevelopment of the site is anticipated to begin later this year with The Missner Group also serving as general contractor.
