Plano Land for Sale - Western East/West Corr
Rare power-adjacent heavy industrial land opportunity in Plano, Illinois located at the southwest corner of Eldamain Road and Cornelius Road within the Kendall Farms industrial corridor. The site consists of approximately 26± acres zoned M-3, the City of Plano’s most intensive and flexible industrial zoning classification, allowing for heavy manufacturing, industrial processing, logistics, infrastructure, and energy-related uses.
This property is directly adjacent to the ComEd Plano Substation, creating a highly strategic location for power-intensive industrial operations, data centers, energy infrastructure, advanced manufacturing, battery storage, and utility-dependent users. Substation adjacency significantly enhances the site’s appeal for high-load electrical demand users seeking scalable power access, infrastructure efficiency, and long-term operational reliability.
The parcel offers strong visibility and frontage along Eldamain Road, flat and usable topography, and development flexibility suitable for phased construction, large-scale industrial campuses, or single-user build-to-suit facilities. The size, layout, and zoning allow for a wide range of heavy industrial development concepts including distribution hubs, manufacturing plants, technology infrastructure, and specialized industrial processing facilities.
Located within Plano’s designated industrial district, the surrounding area is planned and developed for industrial growth and employment-generating uses. The City of Plano maintains a business-friendly development environment with a collaborative municipal approach to economic growth, infrastructure expansion, and long-term industrial investment. This positioning supports streamlined development review, infrastructure coordination, and long-range planning alignment for large industrial users.
Regional connectivity is a major advantage of this location. The recently completed Eldamain Road extension and new Fox River bridge provide enhanced north-south transportation access across Kendall County and improved regional circulation between Plano, Yorkville, Aurora, and the broader Chicago metropolitan area. This infrastructure investment significantly improves truck routing efficiency, employee accessibility, and long-term logistics performance.
The site is strategically positioned within one of the fastest-growing counties in Illinois. Kendall County continues to experience strong industrial expansion, population growth, and infrastructure investment, making it an increasingly attractive destination for logistics, manufacturing, and technology-driven development. The property provides access to major regional labor pools while offering lower operating costs and development flexibility compared to core urban industrial markets.
M-3 zoning represents the heaviest industrial zoning classification available in Plano and supports a wide spectrum of high-intensity uses including heavy manufacturing, processing facilities, industrial infrastructure, utility-related operations, and large-scale distribution. This zoning flexibility reduces entitlement constraints and provides long-term adaptability for evolving industrial requirements.
The combination of large contiguous acreage, substation adjacency, heavy industrial zoning, and new transportation infrastructure creates a rare opportunity for institutional developers, industrial operators, infrastructure investors, and energy-intensive users seeking scalable, future-ready industrial land.
This site is particularly well suited for:
• data center and high-power computing facilities
• advanced manufacturing and industrial processing
• energy infrastructure and grid-dependent operations
• battery storage and utility-scale systems
• logistics and distribution campuses
• industrial park or multi-phase development
• mission-critical infrastructure facilities
Plano’s location within the outer Chicago industrial growth corridor provides access to major transportation networks while maintaining cost advantages and expansion capacity unavailable in land-constrained infill markets. The area continues to attract industrial investment due to its combination of infrastructure, workforce accessibility, and pro-development municipal policy.
Few sites in the Chicago region offer this combination of heavy industrial zoning, direct substation adjacency, scalable acreage, and newly enhanced regional connectivity. Kendall Farms represents a rare opportunity to control strategically positioned industrial land capable of supporting large-scale power-intensive development.
