Plans for the partial residential conversion of 30 N LaSalle Street in The Loop, part of the city’s LaSalle Street Reimagined initiative.

Site prep is underway at 205 West Superior Street in River North for The Lake, a private social club on the southwest corner of Wells and Superior Streets.

The City of Chicago has issued a renovation permit for 7346 South Peoria Street in Englewood.

Construction progress at Northwestern University’s Ryan Field is becoming more visible from the perimeter, as steel columns and metal decking rise to form the stadium’s shell.
