CityView at the Highlands Renovates to Appeal to Engaged Active Inter-Generational Renters
Marquette Companies recently celebrated the Grand Re-opening of CityView at the Highlands in Lombard. The residential community, located near I-88 and I-355 across from Yorktown Shopping Center, has undergone a transformation inside and out, and offers 1,2 and 3-bedroom pet-friendly apartment homes with a host of amenities.
"In planning with renowned Designers Stanton Interiors of Chicago, we really listened to our residents and prospective residents," says Marquette Senior Vice President Darlene Egan. "CityView is designed to be an inter-generational community. Our residents tend to be active, engaged and social, and they desire freedom and lifestyle services. Our public spaces provide meeting, eating and reading-study space, as well as plenty of room to entertain, gather and enjoy the outdoors. We're using technology to add convenience, something appreciated by Millenials and Boomers alike."
A spacious open layout, warm earth tones and natural elements set a relaxing tone to the Resident Lounge with a community kitchen, coffee bar and fireplace. Quiet rooms and a tech/business center offer places for students, entrepreneurs and remote workers to be productive, and are complemented by a spacious conference room. Space can be reserved via an online application and video reservation monitors.
The 24-Hour Health and Fitness Center offers two rooms of new state-of-the art equipment and an on-demand video personal training series and oversized video monitor. 24/7 package pick up and dry cleaning service are also available. Outdoors, residents can enjoy a courtyard with pergola, fire pit seating area, grilling area, Bocce Ball and Bags, as well as a separate heated pool and sundeck.
A variety of newly renovated apartment layouts feature quartz counter-tops, crisp white or driftwood gray cabinetry, marble mosaic backsplashes, stainless appliances and wood plank flooring. Residents also enjoy 9-foot ceilings and large picture windows, garden tubs in select units, full-size washers and dryers, linen closets and patios or balconies.
"The most exciting part for me is the huge transformation of the apartments, the interior amenities and the exterior including fresh new color of paint on the buildings and the new signage", says Egan. "Our team did such a great job collaborating to create a homey, warm and inviting feel throughout with plenty of lifestyle amenities that our residents needs and love; from their personal spaces to their social spaces. "
