Driving the news: Block 59, the new mixed-use development at Route 59 and Aurora Avenue in Naperville, is now equipped with cutting-edge internet services, thanks to a recent investment by Comcast Business.

Details:

• The 16.5-acre site, which is being transformed into a hub for dining, retail, and entertainment, now boasts high-speed internet with speeds up to 100 gigabits per second.

• The Cheesecake Factory and Stan’s Donuts are among the first businesses to call Block 59 home, with more to follow.

• Comcast’s investment is part of a larger $1.4 billion commitment in Illinois over the last three years.

Why it matters: This upgraded tech infrastructure is a crucial part of Naperville’s economic growth. The high-speed internet will help attract businesses and improve connectivity for the city’s growing commercial corridor.

The big picture: As more businesses move into the area, such as those in the hospitality and food service industries, Block 59 is set to become a major economic driver for Naperville.

What’s next: Local partnerships, like those between Comcast and the Naperville Area Chamber of Commerce, continue to play a key role in the city's growth. With 65,000 miles of advanced network infrastructure and 1.8 million WiFi hotspots statewide, Comcast is set to keep supporting local businesses.

The bottom line: With faster internet and reliable tech solutions, Block 59’s businesses are poised to thrive in Naperville’s expanding commercial scene.
