The Chicago City Council has approved the two-tower development at 170 N May Street and 175 N Racine Avenue in Fulton Market. The approval comes after the Plan Commission’s earlier this year, as Chicago based LG Development pivoted from previously announced plans for the site by a different architect and included land north of W Lake Street.
Additional funding has been approved for two affordable housing projects as part of the city’s new bond program. This bond program was approved back in April, now the proposals at 1801 S Wabash Avenue and 4531 W Washington Boulevard will be the first to be financed by it. This first round of approvals will be contributing $20.5 million between the two.
The Chicago City Council has approved the new community center at 6020 S King Drive in Washington Park.

The project is being led by Sunshine Gospel Ministries who would be relocating from their current location nearby.
