A developer, Quattro Development, is seeking approval to build a 24,243 square foot grocery store and a 12,500 square foot nursery school on a 3.5-acre property at 700-800 E. Roosevelt Rd. in Wheaton, Illinois. The site was previously home to a car dealership and transmission repair shop, which were demolished in 2023. A public hearing will be held on April 28 at Wheaton City Hall for residents to provide input on the proposed development.

Why it matters

The development of a new grocery store and nursery school in Wheaton could provide additional shopping and childcare options for local residents, as well as potentially increase economic activity and tax revenue for the city. However, the project will need to be carefully evaluated to ensure it aligns with the city's zoning and development plans.

The details

Quattro Development plans to consolidate the 3.5-acre property into a single lot and construct the 24,243 square foot grocery store on the northwest corner and the 12,500 square foot nursery school on the southeast corner. The site was previously occupied by a DuPage Dodge Chrysler Jeep dealership and a transmission repair shop, which were demolished in 2023 after the property was designated for restoration. A previous proposal for a storage facility on the property ultimately fell through.

  • The public hearing will be held on April 28, 2026 at 7 p.m. at Wheaton City Hall.
  • The site's previous buildings were demolished in 2023.
