Chicago has eight working tower cranes across the city as the month of June begins. They’re located as far south as the 6600-block of S Dr Martin Luther King Drive in Woodlawn, but barely reach north of the Chicago River, with the furthest northern crane working in the 400-block of N Jean-Baptiste Pointe DuSable Lake Shore Drive.
Two residential construction projects in Chicago, 220 North Ada in Fulton Market and 400 Lake Shore in Streeterville, erected tower cranes on their respective job sites last week. The two new cranes mark the 10th and 11th to operate in the city in the month of May.
A tower crane base has sprouted at the 220 North Ada construction site in the West Loop. General contractor Clayco and concrete contractor Adjustable Concrete Construction will soon erect the full crane. That means this 29-story, 308-unit apartment tower will be going vertical in no time.
Construction has officially commenced for a new mixed-use development at 220 N Ada Street, on the corner of W Fulton Street in Fulton Market. The project, initially proposed in 2021 under the address 1353 W Fulton Street, is being developed by Shapack Partners, CRG, and KMW Communities. The plans received city approvals in 2022, but have recently undergone design changes.
