An additional $40 million in funding has been announced for the upcoming renovation of Terminal 3 at O’Hare International Airport. We previously covered the renovation nearly a year ago when it originally received $50 million from the 2021 infrastructure bill. Now further dollars have been awarded to the project led by the Chicago Department of Aviation (CDA) with an undisclosed set of designers and engineers.
Initial plans have been revealed for a potential mixed-use development at 345 N Aberdeen Street in the West Loop. The information comes as developer Sterling Bay submits a zoning application for the site, which currently holds the Cougle Commission factory. However the developer is selling the site, using the Gensler-designed project to rezone it as part of the sales package.
Details have been revealed for a new field house at 10540 S Morgan Street in Washington Heights. Located within Jackie Robinson Park with its main entrance facing S Aberdeen Street, the new structure will replace a vacant one-story annex to Mount Vernon Elementary School. The project is being led by the Chicago Park District with local firm Booth Hansen working on its design.
Permits have been filed for a new hotel development at 146 W Hubbard Street in River North. Located on the northwestern corner with N LaSalle Drive, the new structure will replace a surface parking lot directly next to the recently completed office building at 448 N LaSalle Drive. The project is being led by Detroit-based Porritt Group, with Michigan-based Saroki Architecture working on its design.
Initial details have been revealed for residential development at 3915 N Wayne Avenue in Lake View. Located near the intersection with N Clark Street and by the entrance to Graceland Cemetery, the project will replace a former Burger King and its parking lot that occupied the site. The project is being led by Wayne 531 LLC with local firm Axios Architects and Consultants working on its design.
