Foley verkrijgt goedkeuring voor landgebruik door Carvana voor 14 verdiepingen tellende autotoren in Skokie, Illinois

Foley & Lardner LLP heeft goedkeuring gekregen voor het gebruik van grond en de bestemming ervan voor Carvana, de snelst groeiende online verkoper van tweedehandsauto's die bekend staat om zijn meerdere verdiepingen tellende autoverkoopautomaten, voor een glazen toren van 14 verdiepingen waarin auto's worden verkocht en tentoongesteld in Skokie, Illinois.

Skokie’s Board of Trustees granted final approval for the Carvana tower on Tuesday, February 22, 2022, after a months-long approval process, which included a Text Amendment and Site Plan Approval. Construction on the building is set to begin soon.

Notably, Carvana is one of the youngest companies to be added to the 2021 Fortune 500 List, offering almost all the functions that a physical dealer would offer: buying and selling cars, accepting trade-ins, and financing purchases.

The Foley team advising Carvana included Partners Donna Pugh and William McKenna, Special Counsel Michael Noonan, and Land Use Planner Meaghan O’Connor.
