The City of Chicago has issued a permit for a Liebherr 316 EC-H 12 Litronic tower crane for the continued construction at 1630 South Wabash Avenue in the South Loop. CMK Properties has three apartment projects in the works on a two-block segment of Wabash, and it looks like 1630 will be the next one to restart. The permit became reality yesterday, March 7.
Renderings have been revealed for a pair of upcoming South Loop projects that have been in the works for a few years. Located at 1630, 1700, and 1730 S Wabash Avenue, we’ve only seen elevations of one of these as the others are set to rise as-of-right. All three proposals are being led by CMK Companies, who updated their site with the images.
Construction appears to have halted at 1630 S Wabash Avenue in the South Loop.

The proposal is being led by CMK Companies with local architecture firm Pappageorge Haymes working on its design and Clark Construction on its execution.

This mixed-use development by CMK Companies, replacing a vacant lot directly east of the CTA tracks, will feature 149 rental units above ground-floor retail. A permit for the foundation and partial superstructure was issued in late October, followed by the issuance of the full permit in early December.
