suburbs Long grove Long Grove Community Contact: Long Grove Online 847-634-0888, www.longgroveonline.com One look at Long Grove’s covered bridge and cobblestone streets in the quaint downtown business district, and it becomes clear this is a town that values its heritage. When area expressways were built in the 1950s, it seemed that Long Grove was hurt by being bypassed by the “progress” the expressways could bring, but the village’s slow development then had a hidden benefit. Today, there is a relatively large amount of land where luxury homes are being built in large quantities. Located 35 miles from the Loop.
