About this city
Also known as: The Arboretum Village
Lisle is a highly dynamic, economically robust suburban village located in DuPage County, Illinois, forming an integral part of the high-tech research and corporate corridor along Interstate 88. Incorporated in 1956, Lisle successfully transformed from its pastoral agricultural past into a premier science, hospitality, and arboricultural center within the Chicago metropolitan area. The village is globally celebrated as the home of the world-class Morton Arboretum, which shapes Lisle's defining community character as an environmentally conscious, 'Arboretum Village.' It pairs beautiful corporate campus developments with expansive nature sanctuaries and active suburban green spaces.
