Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit November 26, 1985, 85-1374 (Polk Bros., Inc. v. Forest City Enterprises, Inc.)

EASTERBROOK, Circuit Judge.

In 1972 Polk Bros., which owned some land in Burbank, Illinois, discussed with Forest City Enterprises the possibility of building a store large enough for both firms. Polk sells appliances and home furnishings; Forest City sells building materials, lumber, tools, and related products. Both have substantial chains of stores. They reached an agreement.
