Despite the protests of neighbors who want less density, the Village Board has approved initial plans for a 6-story, 40-unit condominium complex at the northeast corner of Pennsylvania and Forest Avenues.
Morningside Equities Group plans to tear down two apartment buildings to build the condos, which will sell for between $210,000 and $330,000.
The mid-rise building will be on the perimeter of the downtown and would be the first constructed in Glen Ellyn since 1978. Directly north of the site, however, are older, single-family homes, many of whose owners spoke out in opposition.
