About Glendale Heights, Illinois

Glendale Heights is a village of 33,176 people in DuPage County, a far west suburb of Chicago made up almost entirely of homes. Until the 1950s this was a small stretch of farms that got its mail through the Glen Ellyn post office, and in 1959 only 104 people lived here.

Things changed in 1958, when Charles and Harold Reskin of Midland Enterprises bought two farms north of North Avenue along Glen Ellyn Road and began building houses. The first homes went up near Fullerton Avenue, on Glen Ellyn Road and Larry Lane. A petition to incorporate was filed on June 16, 1959, the village was incorporated on July 13, and voters held the first village election on August 2.

  • Glendale, then HeightsThe founders picked the name Glendale because the village sat between Glen Ellyn and Bloomingdale. A small town in southern Illinois already went by Glendale, so in March 1960 the village added Heights. The word describes the land itself: Glendale Heights straddles the Valparaiso Moraine, and its ground rises and falls by about 100 feet.
  • Charles G. Reskin SchoolThe Reskin name stayed with the village after the first houses were finished. Marquardt School District 15, which serves the eastern part of Glendale Heights, counts Charles G. Reskin School among its four elementary schools. In District 16, the old Queen Bee school that gave the district its name no longer holds classes, but its building still stands on Bloomingdale Road.
  • Billy Corgan's hometownBilly Corgan, who sang and played guitar for the Smashing Pumpkins, spent his childhood in Glendale Heights.
