What’s planned next to Brown Deer’s Target? Chipotle, 178 apartments and more retail

More apartments, storefronts and a Chipotle could be coming to the redevelopment around Brown Deer’s Target.

The Village Board’s Monday, November 16, 2026 agenda includes a site-plan request for 178 market-rate apartments at 9044 N. Green Bay Road, just north of Target. A separate Chipotle proposal at 9046 N. Green Bay Road is also up for consideration.

These are upcoming agenda items. As of November 13, the board has not taken the November 16 votes, and the packet does not establish a Chipotle opening date.

178 apartments and space for shops

Woodsonia’s mixed-use building would include studios and one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments, with street-level space for retail, restaurants and services along Green Bay Road. The developer lists roughly 22,500 square feet of commercial space; the staff memo rounds the figure to about 22,000 square feet.

The apartment mix is 22 studios, 88 one-bedroom units, 47 two-bedroom units and 21 three-bedroom units. The plans describe a building with five- and six-story portions.

The developer’s statement targets an early 2027 construction start and completion in late 2028. Those are proposed milestones, rather than guaranteed completion dates. Commercial tenants beyond the separate Chipotle proposal have not been identified in these materials.

The Plan Commission unanimously approved the mixed-use site plan November 9. Monday’s Village Board consideration is another step in the approval process. Read the staff memo and developer’s statement, pages 199–201.

How the proposed Chipotlane would work

The proposed Chipotle includes indoor and outdoor seating and a Chipotlane for prepaid digital orders. Customers would order and pay ahead, then use the lane for pickup; the applicant distinguishes it from a traditional drive-through with on-site menu ordering and payment.

Vehicle access would use the shopping center’s internal drive network rather than a new direct driveway onto Green Bay Road. The plans also describe sidewalk connections and 30 off-street parking spaces, including two accessible spaces.

The restaurant’s site plan and development agreement are separate agenda items. See the Chipotle staff memo, statement of intent and agreement materials, pages 219–226.
