Town Center Demolition, Clove Construction Beginning In Buffalo Grove
A date for a groundbreaking ceremony will be announced soon, according to officials.

BUFFALO GROVE, IL — Nearly two months after the Buffalo Grove Village Board approved a $150 million construction project — known as The Clove — demolition of the existing site is set to begin. Kensington Development Partners, along with partner Urban Street, officially closed on the 22-acre property, formerly known as Town Center, earlier this month, according to officials.
Demolition and construction are expected to begin by the end of the month, with a groundbreaking ceremony announcement forthcoming. Officials said construction fencing is being installed at the site.
The Clove will feature approximately 78,000 square feet of new retail commercial space across multiple buildings. It will also include a 0.85-acre park, an approximately 295-unit luxury apartment building with first-floor retail, and a remodeled 35,000-square-foot shopping center north of Old Checker Road. According to the Village, the construction will also feature walkability, contemporary building design, as well as many new tenants.
