Arizona Tribune - Sterling Organization Launches Strategic Initiative to Advance Golf Mill Shopping Center Redevelopment Project in Niles, IL

NILES, ILLINOIS / ACCESS Newswire / May 7, 2025 / Sterling Organization is pleased to announce that it has launched its long-planned strategic initiative aimed at advancing the redevelopment of the prominent Golf Mill Shopping Center in Niles, IL. This initiative is designed to ensure that the project moves forward in the most effective and timely manner possible. Whether through an equity recapitalization in which Sterling Organization continues to play a leading role, or a sale to a third-party that is highly qualified and experienced in executing similar redevelopments.

Sterling Organization's main objective remains steadfast and clear and is in full alignment with The Village: to ensure that this transformative site is redeveloped by a best-in-class team whose vision not only aligns with, but exceeds, the expectations of The Village of Niles' leadership and residents.

"We are fully aligned with The Village in our shared commitment to bringing this exciting project to life," said Dustin Hicks, Managing Director of Development & Construction at Sterling Organization. "Our focus is on delivering a development of the highest quality-one that reflects the full potential of this unique site and enhances the future of the community, and doing so in as expeditious a manner as possible," he added.

Over the past several years, Sterling Organization has worked closely with Village officials and stakeholders to define a shared vision for the site-one that supports local economic development, enhances community amenities, and creates long-term value for Niles residents. That collaboration remains a central pillar of this next phase.

Jones Lang LaSalle (JLL) has been engaged to market the opportunity for the property. JLL's extensive experience in equity placement and funds advisory will ensure that the project attracts the right financial and/or partners to support and execute upon its ambitious vision.

As Sterling Organization evaluates interest from qualified partners and investors, the priority will remain on stewardship, accountability, and transparency. We are confident that this proactive step will attract the right team to realize a project that serves as a model for thoughtful, impactful redevelopment.
