Recent photos show demolition progress of an existing two-story masonry building, helping to clear the way for a new 11-story residential building at 1454 W Randolph Street in West Loop. Planned by Marquette Companies, the development will consist of 242 units, ranging in size from smaller studios/convertibles to larger one- and two-bedroom units.

Amenities within the building will include a rooftop pool, a fitness center, a private fitness studio, and various co-working spaces throughout. Just across W Randolph Street is the 13.5-acre Union Park that contains a multitude of sports activities and a theater.

Brininstool + Lynch is the project architect, whose design consists of a masonry and glass base. The floors above are enclosed by an expansive set of balconies, accompanied by a glass, metal, and mixed-masonry facade. While one of the above renderings shows the address as 1440 W Randolph, issued permits and Marquette Companies both confirm 1454 as the designated address number.
As far as bus transit, future residents will have access to the north and southbound Routes 9 and X9, located a three-minute walk west to Ashland & Lake. Nearest availability for Route 20 consists of a seven-minute walk southwest to Madison & Ashland. For the CTA L, the Green or Pink Lines have near-immediate access to Ashland station, located less than a two-minute walk west.
The current development is accompanying its taller 26-story sibling at the nearby 1400 W Randolph Street. Combined, the two projects will yield over 500 apartments, 103 of which will be affordable housing.
