Welcome to Downtown Skokie!

The Village of Skokie welcomes you to our Downtown, rich in history and full of vision. We've got it all, including a diverse, progressive business and residential community covering over 15 blocks that features dozens of dining, entertainment, art and shopping options. With a high-tech professional campus, world-class library, thriving community college, accessible public transportation, spectacular parks, a renowned historic music theatre and comfortable public spaces all within walking distance, Downtown Skokie is the place to be. Whether you are visiting, living or doing business here, you will soon notice we've got what you need!

The Village is taking a new look at the Downtown commercial district and is preparing it for new development. We have a strong retail vision with focused marketing efforts underway, and are devoting financial resources from the Village's two Tax Increment Finance Districts to enhance and improve both public and private locales. We are quickly turning our vision of an even better Downtown Skokie into reality.
