Chicago YIMBY sat down with Mike Potter and Stefani Kalter from Riverside Development, one of the developers behind the office-to-residential conversion of the Art Deco skyscraper at 135 South LaSalle Street in The Loop. Riverside has partnered with AmTrust RE and DL3 Realty on the $241 million project, which is set to begin construction in the spring of 2026.
Plans are moving forward for the mixed-use development at 5050 South Prairie Avenue in Grand Boulevard. Located on the corner of East 51st Street, the new structure will replace a pair of commercial buildings along with a vacant, city-owned lot. The effort is being led by KLY Development in partnership with the Rockford-based 1919 Architects.
A groundbreaking ceremony has been held for the affordable housing development at 2120 North Mozart Street in Palmer Square. Located at the corner of West Shakespeare Avenue, the project will redevelop the former home of the Humboldt Park Methodist Church. The effort is being led by the Latin United Community Housing Association (LUCHA).
Details have been revealed for a new mixed-use development at 7644 North Sheridan Road in Rogers Park. Located at the intersection with North Rogers Avenue, the project will replace two structures, including a two-story commercial building. The proposal is being led by 5T Development Partners along with local firm SEEK Design + Architecture.
Additional interior renderings have been revealed for the upcoming Bally’s Casino at 777 West Chicago Avenue in River West. The massive construction project is already well underway at the intersection with North Halsted Street, recently seeing a crane jump for the hotel structure along the southern end of the site.
