Construction continues on the second phase of the adaptive reuse development dubbed Mural Park. Located at 920 W Cullerton Street in Pilsen, the building is the second of two old warehouses that are to be transformed into Class-A office space. The site for the two buildings is bound by W 19th Street to the north, S Sangamon Street to the west, W Cullerton Street to the south, and adjacent buildings to the east, with S Peoria Street enclosing the full block.

Developed by a team of developers including Condor Partners, Transwestern, and Chicago Development Partners, the Mural Park development is a creative office and commercial redevelopment of two 100,000-square-foot loft buildings. The building located at 920 W Cullerton Street is the second warehouse to be adaptively reused. The two buildings will be connected by a new park on the site, designed by Site Design Group.

The scope of work will update the egress stairs, elevator cores, fix any structural issues, and replace the buildings mechanical systems. Interior non-load bearing walls, overhead doors and windows, and old mechanical systems will be removed as part of the work.

Since our last update in January, almost all of the new windows have been installed. The original windows had been either boarded up or were in poor condition. Windows still need to be replaced on the eastern elevation and on the ground floor of other facades. Tarps originally placed along the parapet of the western and northern walls have been removed. Fresh concrete was being poured into the building, possibly for a new floor slab.

The development will feature multiple amenities for tenants. For those commuting on bikes, there will be ample indoor bike storage, with bike repair and cleaning services available. There will be an outdoor roof deck with skyline views, which can be reserved for private tenant events. Both buildings will have local food operators and breweries. Mural Park, a landscaped outdoor park, will connect 924 W 19th Place and 920 W Cullerton Street and serve as an outdoor art gallery and meeting place. The park is situated along Pilsen’s new four-mile bicycle and walking path, “El Paseo”. The path will feature gathering spaces, public art, and gardens.
