The 21-acre Downers Park Plaza is at 7241 Lemont Road, within DuPage County. The retail center serves several nearby suburbs such as Darien, Westmont and Woodridge. The property is part of the 75th Street retail corridor, where the daily traffic count reaches approximately 61,000 vehicles, according to PMAT.

Downers Park Plaza serves around 231,000 individuals within a five-mile radius, with the average income of approximately $112,000. Downers Park Plaza is near Interstate 355, which allows easy access across the Chicago metropolitan area.
