Business and Industry
COMMERCIAL
Shorewood has all of the components that provide for a healthy commercial/retail economy. The proof is the rapid population growth in the area, resulting in the location of regional and national retailers along the state highways that run through Shorewood.
The future looks bright for continued growth as Will County’s population is projected to double, reaching 900,000 by the year 2020.
INDUSTRIAL
Shorewood is developing a strong industrial foundation. Located only 40 miles from downtown Chicago, adjacent to the intersection of Interstate 55 and Interstate 80, Shorewood is truly situated at the “Crossroads of the Midwest.” Easy access is afforded by two interchanges off I-55, with transportation being further aided by State Highway Routes 52 and 59, which intersect in the heart of the village. The EJ&E Railroad serves the Shorewood area, and the village is working with METRA for the establishment of a commuter rail station in Shorewood.
