Work on the glass exterior for 919 Fulton in the West Loop is nearly complete. Only a few panes need to be installed where the construction hoist was recently removed from the north end of the structure.
Demolition permits were issued for 1235 and 1237 North Ashland Avenue in the Wicker Park neighborhood on Monday, signaling that construction of a five-story, 16-unit apartment building on the site is imminent. Noah Properties is erecting the new development here, having applied for a construction permit on October 14 of last year. That permit remains pending.
The first few levels of exterior glass have been installed on 1717 Michigan, the South Loop residential building from CMK Companies formerly known as 1723 South Michigan. The construction site is also notable for what it doesn’t have: a tower crane. That’s been taken down now that the building is topped out. The construction hoist at the south end of the structure will do the rest of the heavy lifting from here on out.
A construction permit has been issued for a new residential development at 5752-54 South Indiana Avenue in the Washington Park neighborhood. Dated January 10, 2025, the permit allows for a three-story, six-unit building with six surface parking spaces. The entity of Chicago Rental 79 LLC is named as the developer, with Danny’s Construction Group of Lemont, IL performing general contractor duties.
Two demolition permits issued for the West Loop by the City of Chicago on January 10 could indicate that the start of 1201 West Fulton construction is near. One demo permit is for the Christensen & Olsen Foundry Company building at 218 North Racine Avenue, and the second permit will raze the former Revel event space at 1201 West Fulton Market.
