Initial details have been revealed for the commercial redevelopment of 212 E Ontario Street in Streeterville. Located just over a block east from N Michigan Avenue, the project will restore and renovate the existing historical mansion. Efforts are being led by Chicago-based jewelry brand Local Eclectic who will move into the former home and open their first store front.
At 310 North Peoria Street in the Fulton Market District, a fifth story is being added to the former Wolf, Sayer, and Heller warehouse building. Designed by Adler & Sullivan, the building is being preserved and renovated as part of a mixed-use development that will include a hotel on the current Fulton Market Kitchen site at 311 North Sangamon. Renovations include adding a restaurant with outdoor dining space at street level, plus a lobby that will eventually connect to the future hotel.
The Chicago City Council has approved the mixed-use building at 8340 S Martin Luther King Drive in Chatham. Located just south of the intersection with E 83rd Street, the proposal will be replacing a long term vacant lot. Efforts on the project are being led in collaboration by ZPACT Developers LLC, SPM Properties & Development, and Park Manor Christian Church.
Foundation work is done, and the concrete core has started to rise, for the new affordable housing development at 835 West Addison Street in Lake View. Lakeview Landing is going to be a six-story, 37-unit building located just two blocks from Wrigley Field and the Addison Red Line platform.
Continuing our Sister Cities series, we return to Milwaukee, where a new proposal has been unveiled for the world’s tallest mass-timber tower. Located at 1001 N Water Street on the western edge of downtown, the project will replace a multi-story parking garage with a three-tower high-rise development. Efforts are being led by local developer The Neutral Project.
