100 N Washington St

Rare opportunity to plant your concept on one of the most recognized roads in America. This 1450 sq ft corner property at 100 N. Washington St. sits at the intersection of IL Routes 129, 113, and 53 — a high-visibility crossroads on Historic U.S. Route 66 in Will County with 300+ feet of frontage and dedicated on-site parking.

The Space

A welcoming front lobby and storefront open into a high-ceiling shop bay with 13-foot ceilings and two overhead garage doors (18'×10' double and 9'×10' single). Open the doors on a summer evening and let Route 66 work for you. The layout supports drive-thru and drive-up service — rare at this footprint and price point.

• Craft brewery or taproom — ceiling height accommodates equipment; garage doors create an indoor/outdoor feel

• Boutique retail or pop-up showroom — 300+ ft of frontage, impossible to miss
• Creative studio or maker space — high ceilings, garage access, open floor plan
