Construction progress has risen above foundation level for the Kensington School West Loop at 1220 West Adams Street in the West Loop.

A permit was issued February 13 by the City of Chicago to allow the owner of a three-unit residence at 2421 West Lexington Street in Tri-Taylor to add a fourth unit. The three-story building has a basement level, so it’s natural to assume the Additional Dwelling Unit will be built downstairs, but the permit does not specify that. RY National, Inc is named as the general contractor, with the permit indicating a cost of $50,000 for work performed.
Expansion of Fifth Third Arena on the city’s Near West Side continues to make progress, with the shell nearing complete enclosure.
