Avere on Duane will be a 48-unit luxury rental development in downtown Glen Ellyn. Located steps away from the public library, Metra station and many restaurants and retail establishments, the project is designed to appeal to downsizing empty nesters who want to live an upscale, maintenance-free lifestyle while remaining in the Glen Ellyn community. The four-story “podium” style building, situated on 1.17 acres, will offer large floorplans– from a 868 SF one-bedroom to a 1,615 SF two-bedroom plus den–with high-quality finishes, underground parking, a resident lounge and the many conveniences of a modern luxury apartment. REVA Development Partners has been working closely with the architect to design a building that is in keeping with the scale of the neighborhood and is consistent with the objectives of the village’s Comprehensive Plan. The project received a unanimous recommendation from the Plan Commission on June 20 and was approved by the Village Board on July 8.  Construction will begin in August 2019 and first units will be available for occupancy in fall of 2020.
