New Schaumburg Village Hall to open Nov. 23, shortly after closure of temporary site
Schaumburg officials on Wednesday announced plans to cap off the village’s 70th anniversary year with the official opening of its new village hall on Nov. 23.
In order for staff to make the move, operations at the temporary village hall at 1000 E. Woodfield Road that’s been used since the spring of 2025 will end at the close of business on Nov. 18.
The new $44.2 million Schaumburg Village Hall will reclaim the traditional site at 101 Schaumburg Court adjacent to the newly renamed Al Larson Cultural Center on the Robert O. Atcher Municipal Campus.
The building’s prairie-style architecture features natural materials, a neutral color palette and indoor-outdoor design elements to complement the surrounding landscape, officials said. Bird-friendly glass will help to protect the area’s wildlife.
“For 70 years, Schaumburg has continued to evolve, and our new village hall represents an exciting next step in that journey,” Mayor Tom Dailly said in a statement. “Every generation has a responsibility to leave Schaumburg stronger for the next. The new village hall is part of that promise: an investment in the public service and civic life that will carry our village forward.”
Village Manager Brian Townsend acknowledged the impact the transition has had on those whom the building is meant to serve.
“We appreciate the patience and understanding our residents have shown throughout construction and while we’ve operated from our temporary facility,” he said in a statement. “We look forward to opening our doors and welcoming the community into a thoughtfully designed space that supports village services and brings residents and staff together.”
In the new building, expanded gathering areas have been designed to provide more opportunities for public meetings and community engagement.
Beyond its construction cost, another $5.8 million was budgeted for the facility’s furniture, fixtures and equipment. Itasca-based Williams Architects was paid $1.8 million to design the building.
In the near future, the former office building that’s been used as the temporary village hall will be demolished to make way for a new Schaumburg police station tentatively expected to open in late 2028.
