Construction has risen above street level at 300 N Michigan Avenue, located in The Loop. Planned to rise 523 feet, the tower will stand 47 stories above the intersection of N Michigan Avenue and E Wacker Place. The development is a result of the collaboration by Magellan Development Group and Sterling Bay.
As the 30th tallest entry in Chicago YIMBY’s end-of-year countdown the approved 330 N Green Street, set to reach 288 feet in height, currently awaits groundbreaking in the Fulton Market neighborhood. Dubbed “The Porch,” Sterling Bay’s 20-story mixed-use development will provides a unique set of features that help blaze the trail for the 21st-century office block.
Today, YIMBY has an exclusive first look at renderings for a new 31-story mixed-use development at 401 N Racine Avenue in West Loop. The project site is a full block lot, bounded by Metra tracks to the north, N May Street to the east, W Kinzie Street to the south, and N Racine Avenue to the west. The nearest public transportation is the Route 65 CTA bus, accessed at the Grand and Racine, within a three-minute walk from the site. The Morgan CTA L station, serviced by the Green and Pink Line, can be accessed within a ten-minute walk.
Zoning has been approved for a new commercial development at 1200 W Carroll Avenue in the West Loop. The site is located along W Carroll Avenue, between N Racine Avenue and N Elizabeth Street, taking up most of the block on the northern side of the street. The northern edge of the site is bounded by the Metra tracks. The Morgan CTA L station, serviced by the Green and Pink Lines, is an eight-minute walk away. Sterling Bay is in charge of the development of the project.
Photos taken yesterday show construction mockups and other equipment on the site of Fulton Market‘s 330 N Green Street, in preparation of the future 18-story office building. The structure will replace a previously-demolished two-story commercial edifice, adding 670,418 square feet of total floor space to the pool of new office developments rising in the West Loop neighborhood.
