LIVE at Bell Works

Bell Works Chicagoland, Chicago’s first Metroburb, offers a fresh look at suburban work and life. Part of this innovation is the new LIVE at Bell Works community, soon to provide homes for employees at Bell Works Chicagoland and beyond. To bring the vision of this 164-townhome community to life, we assembled a multidisciplinary team. 

Our traffic engineers first forecasted vehicular volumes for the buildout of the existing office space, townhome community, future apartments, and surrounding developments. Our civil engineers designed the utilities, grading, stormwater, and road improvements. The team also redesigned the adjoining roadway, adding turn lanes. Our landscape architects designed pocket parks, specified street trees, and identified a future playground location.

We also played a pivotal role in the overall site improvements at Bell Works Chicagoland, when we designed a bike and pedestrian corridor seamlessly connecting to the adjacent redevelopment. This addition not only promotes sustainable transportation but also enhances the amenities available at LIVE at Bell Works, setting a new standard for suburban communities and the overall living experience.
