Cerca Glenview Brings Luxury Multifamily Living to Downtown Glenview

Newly opened 62-unit community welcomes first residents to the North Shore

CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--RPM Living, a full-service multifamily property management, investment and development company, announces the official opening of Cerca Glenview, a newly constructed 62-unit luxury multifamily community near downtown Chicago at 1850 Glenview Road. The apartment complex, developed by The Drake Group, celebrated its official ribbon cutting June 17 and welcomed its first residents on June 19, 2026.

“This is a project that’s years in the making, and welcoming our first residents is a proud moment for our team,” said Tom Drake, Principal, The Drake Group. “We have deep roots in this community, and that personal connection shaped every decision we made throughout the process as we strived to build something the neighborhood could be proud of.”

Cerca Glenview offers a range of floor plans including junior one-bedroom, one-bedroom, two-bedroom and three-bedroom residents, with monthly rents ranging from $2,745 to $7,300. Atop the building sits the Cerca Reserve Collection, a curated offering of penthouse residences on the fifth floor with access to an exclusive top-floor amenity level. The community is already 35% occupied and 45% leased.

Situated in the heart of downtown Glenview, Cerca Glenview offers residents convenient access to the village’s array of dining and retail offerings, as well as prime transit corridors. The property serves as a residential anchor to the area as the surrounding community continues to attract development and investment along the North Shore.

“Cerca Glenview is a standout addition to Chicago’s North Shore market,” said Will Shew, Regional Vice President for RPM Living. “We’ve already seen tremendous demand since preleasing began mid-April 2026, which speaks to the property’s value and the appetite for luxury living in Glenview. As the management company, we look forward to fostering an exceptional community for current and future residents.”

Construction on the project broke ground in October 2025, with Weis serving as the general contractor and Cullen Construction Management as owner’s representative. Wintrust provided financing for the project.

Cerca Glenview is now leasing. For more information or to schedule a tour, visit cercaglenview.com.
