The Illinois Science + Technology Park is a new regional catalyst designed to help transform Illinois from a scientific research hub to an economic engine for bioscience and nanotechnologies. Strategically located at the geographical center of the Chicago area’s major universities, teaching research hospitals, and pharmaceutical/medical device companies, the Park will play an integral role in creating the coveted, high-quality scientific jobs that are driving the 21st Century economy.
Transformed from it’s prior role as a single-user pharmaceutical campus, the Illinois Science + Technology Park offers up to 2 million square feet of state-of-the-art life science, laboratory, office and conference space for lease in renovated and to-be constructed buildings. In this 22-acre, collegial, campus-like environment, scientists can gather to share ideas in the campus café, conference facilities or in the beautifully landscaped parks and pedestrian paths, all owned and operated by Forest City’s highly experienced team. Current tenants include a major Japanese pharmaceutical firm, a number of nanotechnology companies with ties to Northwestern University, and the administrative offices for a leading Chicago north shore medical institution.
