Pizzuti Development has been granted an initial construction permit for their proposed 21-story mixed-use tower at 1101 W Van Buren Street in the West Loop. Replacing a vacant lot of limited size, the new tower will provide a total of 298 new apartment units.
Chicago’s sixth tallest tower under construction is 360 N Green Street, a 24-story primarily office tower in Fulton Market. Planned by Sterling Bay and poised to stand 399 feet, the building will be one of the tallest to the west of the Kennedy Expressway. The base portion has seen significant progress in the last few months, with both the core and structural pieces already filling out much of the base section.
Number seven in the year-end countdown is the 33-story mixed-use tower prepping to rise at 344 N Canal Street in Fulton River District. The Habitat Company and Diversified Real Estate Capital LLC are behind the 375-foot-tall structure, located on the former site of the five-story Cassidy Tire building. The high rise replacement, dubbed “Cassidy on Canal”, will provide 343 apartments on its upper floors, with ground-floor retail space available as well.
Construction fencing can be seen surrounding a one-story masonry building in Fulton Market. This parcel is currently under development by Fulton Street Companies and Harrison Street Real Estate Capital and is set to be transformed into a 34-story, 414-foot-tall tower. This mixed-use high rise will feature 13,100 square feet of retail space, as well as 433 apartment units.
Taking ninth place in our year-end construction countdown, the 28-story hotel at 150 E Ontario Street is gearing up to rise in Streeterville. Developed by The Prime Group, the 345-foot-tall project will be the next location for the Spanish hotel brand RIU Hotels and Resorts, offering a total of 388 rooms. Additionally, a ground-level cafe will be situated at the southeast corner of the tower base.
