The first week of April 2025 has already been a month of milestones at 400 Lake Shore in the Near North Side’s Streeterville neighborhood. Over the weekend, the construction team jumped the tower crane, adding six new sections to extend its height. On Monday, the first panels of glass, the ones visible Sunday inside the lower few floors of the tower, were installed on the north façade of the third level above ground.

The construction team of LR Contracting, BOWA Construction, and Goebel Forming jumped the tower crane at 400 Lake Shore in Streeterville this past weekend.

A permit allowing the crane to be tied in was issued by the city on March 10. The residential tower at 400 Lake Shore will yield 72 stories when completed.

Construction progress is ongoing at 1357 West Roosevelt Road on Chicago’s Near West Side. Yesterday, we checked in on progress one block east of here, at 1257 West Roosevelt.
