Preleasing Starts At River Place Apartments

July 06, 1986

Preleasing has begun at River Place apartments now under construction along the Du Page River in west suburban Naperville.

Marquette Properties, a Chicago-based firm that heads the partnership developing River Place, has installed a trailer to serve as a leasing office until space is ready in the building, said Bruno Bottarelli, managing partner. When completed, River Place will offer 239 one- or two-bedroom apartments, many with dens and fireplaces, at rents ranging from $699 to $1,374. Two six-story, Y-shaped buildings currently are being built on a wooded site known locally as the Netzley Estate.

River Place is located on Aurora Road 1/2-mile west of Washington Street. The first building is expected to be completed and ready for occupancy by September, with the second building following two months later.

Standard features in all 13 floorplans include fully equipped kitchens with European-style cabinets, private laundry rooms with full-size washer and dryer, balconies with floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors, oversized bathrooms, decorator carpeting, individually controlled gas heat, cable television hookups, and video-monitored security. Fireplaces are available in half of the apartments.

A stone clubhouse will feature a whirlpool, aerobics room with exercise equipment, game room, lounge, kitchen facilities, sundeck and lakeside picnic area.
