19 October 2022
The Vernon Hills village board on Tuesday approved a significant expansion of the Hawthorn Mall redevelopment plan. The revised vision for the former Carson's space calls for the relocation of 250 luxury apartments to create a larger outdoor public plaza and a new grand entrance for the shopping center. The revised plan for the $252 million mall transformation also will add significantly more retail and restaurant uses, as well as an entertainment space surrounding the Hawthorn Row streetscape.
