  • Forest View, located just southwest of downtown Chicago, is strategically positioned as a gateway for industrial and logistics operations in the greater Chicagoland area. With immediate access to major transportation arteries—including I-55, I-294, and nearby rail lines—Forest View offers unparalleled connectivity for distribution, warehousing, and manufacturing firms.

    The village is home to established industrial parks and is seeing renewed interest from companies seeking modern, flexible space close to Chicago’s urban core. Recent developments and upgrades to local infrastructure have made Forest View increasingly attractive for both new builds and adaptive reuse projects.

    Industrial vacancy rates in the surrounding Cook County region remain low, and demand for well-located sites continues to outpace supply. The proximity to Midway International Airport and key intermodal terminals further enhances Forest View’s appeal for logistics and supply

    chain operations.

    Illinois offers a range of incentives to support business growth, including EDGE tax credits and workforce training grants. Local and county-level economic development offices provide guidance on site selection, permitting, and incentives, helping companies navigate the expansion or relocation process efficiently...
