One Chicago Square has surpassed the vertical halfway mark for both its 74- and 49-story towers. Developed by JDL, the mixed-use project will max out at 971 feet in height and make a substantial impact on the cityscape in the River North neighborhood. Since YIMBY’s last update in August, each tower has climbed about 13 floors, with the structurally completed floor count now around 41 and 28, respectively.
Exterior work is wrapping up on the topped-out, 41-story residential tower at 369 W Grand Avenue, dubbed “The Grand” in River North. The project is both developed and constructed by Onni Group, and designed by Brininstool + Lynch. YIMBY last reported on the development in August when facade work was still needed on the top nine floors, four of which have since been completed.
Construction is imminent for a new six-story mixed-use development at 61 W Erie Street in River North. Located on a corner lot along W Erie Street and a public alley between N Dearborn Street and N Clark Street, the building will be within a six-minute walk of the Grand CTA L station, service by the Red Line. LG Development Group is the developer behind the project.
The Zoning Board of Appeals has granted zoning approval for a co-living development at 123 W Chicago Avenue in River North.

The site is within a three minute walk of the Chicago CTA L station, serviced by the Brown and Purple Lines. According to the zoning applications, the owner of the project is BRP LaSalle LLC, but reports have noted Bucksbaum Properties as the developer, working with co-living firm Common.
