The city of Gary has released its official bid to become the new home of the Chicago Bears. Revealed earlier this week, the city, along with state legislators, have brought forth plans for the team to relocate just over the border as Illinois softens its stance on paying for the team’s infrastructure should they stay in the state.
Plans have been revealed and approved for a new mixed-use development at 4725 North Clifton Avenue in Uptown. Located at the intersection with North Broadway, the structure will replace part of a large parking lot just north of the historic Uptown Broadway Building. The project is being led by CEDARst Companies, which is best known for its Flats developments.
Additional details, renderings, and a Phase One timeline have been revealed for Foundry Park ahead of its Plan Commission review later this week. Located on the northern half of the former Lincoln Yards site in Lincoln Park, Foundry Park has been in the works by local developer JDL since the firm purchased the site last year after the previous megadevelopment stalled.
The Chicago City Council has approved plans for a mixed-use development at 4943 North Damen Avenue in Lincoln Square. Located near Winnemac Park, just south of the intersection with West Argyle Street, the project was initially proposed last summer and will replace an existing one-story commercial building.
A zoning application has been submitted for the first phase of the Woodlawn Central development at 6230 South Dorchester Avenue. Located just southwest of the upcoming Obama Presidential Center, we initially covered plans for the sprawling campus exactly four years ago. The multi-site plan would replace a collection of parking lots and vacant parcels.
