Property Description
Prime commercial opportunity at a highly trafficked Des Plaines intersection! Located on the hard corner of Oakton and River Road, this new-construction retail storefront or office space is currently a clean "vanilla box," ready for your custom build-out. The property features a side yard for exclusive outdoor use and offers excellent business synergy with the adjacent name-brand franchise gas station. Parking is conveniently included in the rent. The City of Des Plaines, strategically branded as the "City of Destiny," offers a premier environment for retail growth by combining world-class connectivity with a deeply stable economic base. Situated immediately adjacent to O'Hare International Airport and the I-294 corridor, the city serves as a critical regional hub, capturing a massive influx of daily commuters, corporate employees, and international travelers. This logistical advantage is paired with a diverse and affluent residential population boasting a median household income of approximately $97,875, ensuring that local businesses have access to a consumer base with significant discretionary spending power. The city's commitment to commercial success is evidenced by its aggressive 2026 revitalization initiatives, including multi-million-dollar investments in the downtown theater district and the modernization of the Northwest Highway corridor, which continue to drive foot traffic and increase property values across the area. At 1605 S River Rd, businesses benefit from being at the epicenter of this activity, occupying a high-visibility "hard corner" that bridges the gap between Des Plaines' residential neighborhoods and its bustling industrial and transit sectors. The community is notably multicultural, with a vibrant demographic creating a unique demand for a wide variety of specialized retail, international services, and diverse dining options.
