University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign

Section II – 4

East Campus Commercial Area

The East Campus Commercial Area is located on Gregory Street between Oregon and Nevada Streets approximately one block west of Lincoln Avenue. Roughly 20,000 square feet of retail will be topped by three stories of one- and two-bedroom apartments, which are fully pre-leased for a fall 2004 opening. The overall architecture of the building and its storefronts, while utilitarian and sensible, provides the opportunity to draw the walking visitor to this destination.

East Campus Commercial Area

This development is located in an active neighborhood. First, various University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign buildings on nearby blocks cause this section of campus to be a gateway for students, students’ families and other visitors. All of the following are located within a few blocks of the East Campus Commercial building: admissions and records, minority student affairs academic services, a recreation center, a health center, and the faculty and visitor’s center. Second, the neighborhood is filled with high density student housing, including resident halls, off-campus rental housing and numerous fraternities and sororities. Additionally, some of Urbana’s more upscale single-family homes are located just east and south of this neighborhood.
