Construction progress on the residential development at 629 West Lake Street in the West Loop has reached the top floor.

Plans are moving forward for the mixed-use development at 1060 West Van Buren Street in the West Loop. Sitting on the corner of South Aberdeen Street, the high-rise proposal was first revealed in the fall of 2024 but has been quiet since. That is now changing, as it is set to be reviewed by the Chicago Plan Commission later this month.
Foundation work is underway for the forthcoming Bathhouse at 8 North Morgan Street in the West Loop. Work to drive piles for the building wrapped up a couple months ago, and now excavation is complete and rebar is being formed for the facility’s lower level.
Auger cast piles are in full effect at the 1221 West Washington residential tower where the Fulton Market District meets the West Loop. Michels Construction has a giant corkscrew at the construction site that has been drilling shafts into the earth, to be filled in with concrete and then a rebar cage.
As excavation work wraps up and pile driving nears, a tower crane permit has been issued for 1221 West Washington on the boundary of the Fulton Market District and the West Loop. The permit had been in the Chicago Data Portal since August 28, and it went live on Wednesday, October 8.
