Buhai, of the Lake County Forest Preserve, said the existing golf course will be redesigned, including a new clubhouse and four holes near the lake. The new signature course, which will feature landscaping with native Illinois plants, may not start construction for a year or two, according to Buhai. In addition, a pathway will be built down to the beach below the fort. The community is being developed by Red Seal Development Corp., LR Development Co., Project Management Advisors Inc., and Mesirow Stein Real Estate Inc., a division of Mesirow Financial. Floor plans at The Arbors are offered in nine two-story and ranch styles.
Some plans feature circular stairways, hexagonal breakfast rooms and master suite sitting rooms.
When complete, the community will include 290 acres of open land, including parade grounds, walking trails and paths, ponds, limestone bridges and public beach access.
