With much of the foundation work now in place, steel beams have been spotted at 812 W Adams Street in West Loop, the site of a new seven-story mixed-use development by Luxe Suites Chicago. The project will include 80 for-rent apartments and 4,200 square feet of retail, which will replace three low-rise buildings on the southernmost part of the block.

The design for the new building was created by Axios Architects and Consultants, and will include features such as multi-shade masonry cladding, bay window protrusions, and private glass and metal balconies that cantilever outward.

The development will have 27 on-site parking spaces in a ground-level garage, as well as numerous public transit options nearby. The closest bus service can be found for both Routes 8 and 20 within a one-block radius, while the closest CTA transit can be found for either the Blue Line via a seven-minute walk south to UIC-Halsted station or a 14-minute walk northwest to Morgan station.
