Your Choice for Lockport!

LOWER PROPERTY VALUES, 24/7 TRAFFIC & NOISE, LIMITED TAX REVENUE, DIESEL FUEL POLLUTION, DANGER, LIMITED/TEMPORARY JOBS, LESS DESIRABLE INDUSTRIES

Is this what you want for Lockport?

We have 200 Acres of Prime Real Estate, located on a main thoroughfare, 2 miles to I-355, near Historic Downtown Lockport & the Heritage Corridor. Land is flat, cleared & ready for development, near waterways, bike trail, adjacent to Conservation Area &endangered species.

We have the Opportunity to:

- Increase Property Values in established neighborhoods
- Increase Tax Revenue
- Numerous Employment opportunities
- Revitalize the North End of Lockport
- Create a Hub for Lockport with Indoor Recreation/Entertainment or Corporate Businesses



Texaco/Chevron project:

Soil has been removed to bedrock

Bedrock cleaned & sealed

Clean fill brought in

Ready for development!


We must ‘think’ wisely & thoroughly to protect the citizens of Lockport & the surrounding communities from becoming known as the
“Diesel Fuel Capitol of IL” or the
“Unhealthiest Places to Live in IL.”

Historic Downtown Lockport & the Heritage Corridor will be doomed!

Please, keep in mind that this proposed Texaco project is just “1” of “5” industrial parks proposed for our community.
How can we handle the truck traffic on our already overburdened roads & the new ramps to I-355?

Will your taxes be increased to maintain the roads from the hundreds of thousands trucks?

The answer is selection ~– Develop this site into something to put the North end of Lockport on the Map-We need Restaurants, Hotels, Convention Centers, Entertainment!

Please call or write with your suggestions for the area & say “NO” to freight yards!
